Okay, well that does limit some of the qeapons that would be present. Check production dates and modify issue dates based on the opposition units. In essence, a front-line military unit in good supply will have the best available weapons, especially elite units. This will both mean a limited availability for the newer weapons and a lower likelihood of said weapons falling into the hands of the Resistance as the users would be more competent. Resistance fighters will seek to obtain weapons from rear echelon units and depots, not from hard-edged front-line troops.
Also, always remember that it is completely safe to err on the side of older weapons. While a stickler for details will chide you for including an MP-40 in early war, no one will really be all that taken aback to see a Resistance fighter using a Luger P-08 at any point.
(More Stars Wars prop trivia - the Stormtrooper Blaster Rifles were Sterling SMG's with very short magazine and mocked up optic sights.)
