— In-game description

The RK-3 is the default Blaster Pistol for the Imperial Officer in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II. An Imperial Reinforcement known as the ISB Agent uses a deadly Dual-Wield version of this weapon, with mid- to close-range capabilities in full-auto, and a devastating power blast for longer ranged shots.

Overview

The RK-3 is one of the default weapons for the Officer. This means it shares the same statistics as the other default Officer weapons for the other factions. This also means that modifications cannot be equipped, which limits the overall potential of the weapon.

The blaster pistol is best suited for close range combat and grows less effective over range due to the fact that  the weapon's damage and accuracy will drop quickly.
