Part 62

Battlefield Hardline guide to the G17 Race Pistol ($60,000), A8S air rifle ($85,000, Betrayal DLC), and Dual vz.61 akimbo ($100,000, Betrayal DLC).

G17 Race Pistol

Unlocks: $60,000 (both factions)

The G17 Race Pistol is a customized Glock G17 semi-automatic pistol. It features a 9x19mm ammo type, a capacity of 17+1 rounds, a fire-rate of 900 RPM, and a reload time of 1.50 seconds. While added with the Getaway DLC (downloadable content — extra missions or items released after launch), the expansion is not required to access it. Its stats are nearly identical to the standard G17, including a three-hit kill range up to 10 meters. The match-grade components provide an aimed accuracy of 0.1 and the lowest horizontal recoil among sidearms, tied with the FN57 and M1911. It is also equipped with the Coyote red-dot sight. However, it has nearly 60% more vertical recoil than the standard G17 and a 40% larger spread increase per shot (SIPS). At short ranges, it performs similarly to the G17, but allows for accurate single shots at long range with a minimum damage of 25. No attachments are available for the G17 Race Pistol.

A8S

Unlocks: $85,000 (both factions)

The A8S is an air rifle that fires arrows. It has an ammo type of arrows, a capacity of 1, a fire-rate of 15 RPM, and a reload time of 3.20 seconds. It delivers a maximum damage of 100, allowing for one-hit kills on body shots at a respectable distance. However, it has a very slow muzzle velocity of 200 m/s, resulting in a significant drop effect. You carry only ten arrows, but as a generic weapon, it can be used with the Enforcer class, allowing for ammo resupply via dropped ammo. The effective maximum rate of fire is approximately 15 RPM due to individual arrow loading. It operates quietly, functioning as a suppressed weapon. The A8S comes equipped with a Comp M4s sight by default, with no other attachments available.

Dual vz.61

Unlocks: $100,000 (both factions)

The Dual vz.61 are akimbo machine-pistols chambered in .32 ACP. They have a capacity of 31+1 rounds, a fire-rate of 1,300 RPM, and a reload time of 1.50 seconds. On PC, they deal considerably less damage than the Professional kit's sidearms, likely resulting in a six-hit kill at short range. Their combined fire-rate of 1,300 RPM is the highest in the game. They have very bad hipfire accuracy, but zooming improves the spread significantly, giving them poor aimed accuracy similar to other machine-pistols. They also feature heavy recoil.
