	The Patten PK470 seems to be an attempt at a futurized piston-driven [[M4A1]]-type assault rifle, inevitably with aspects of the [[Heckler & Koch XM8]] thrown in, along with an exposed gas piston tube above the barrel like a [[Heckler & Koch G36]]. It fires in semi or full-auto and holds 30 rounds. Early versions showed two variants; the first with rail-attached iron sights (PK470), the second with an ACOG (PK570A). Early versions also bore a grooved STANAG magazine. In the final game the version with the iron-sights has been removed in favor of the scoped version, and the magazine is plastic and has a raised checker pattern similar to Bulgarian Waffle pattern magazines. When reloading, Beckett will slap the bolt-release on the left side of the rifle like AR-15 based rifles, though the animation seems to show Becket hitting the side of the scope; it's possible Monolith didn't understand what part of the gun was supposed to be struck.

	Interestingly, Monolith seem to have acquired most of their firearm knowledge from playing ''[[Black]]''; the RAAB KM50 is depicted in game as a bolt-action rifle but described in the pause menu as semi-automatic (presumably caused by looking at ''Black's'' straight-pull bolt-action WA2000 and looking up that it was a semi-auto, without knowing that semi-auto implies a weapon isn't manually operated), and the reload animation tilts across the screen while the new magazine is inserted, mimicking ''Black's'' idle position for the sniper rifle.

	This is the primary submachine gun in F.E.A.R. 2, and one of the player's two starting weapons. It seems to be based on the [[FN P90]], albeit with the magazine housing's front where the back of the real weapon's magazine is, and the grip shifted back accordingly. According to the mirrored writing on the right-hand side of the front section, it fires a fictional 5.7x25mm round. It fires in full-auto and 3-round burst modes in the SP campaign, but in multi-player it has an additional semi-auto mode too. It's fitted with a reflex sight based on the EOTech sight and a side-mounted flashlight with a fictional "Lightbringer" brand logo on the side; something of a joke, as this is a literal translation of the name "Lucifer." The game claims it has a 'folding stock.' Everyone you meet seems to have forgotten to bring that particular part along; judging by the world model it's possible this is meant to be a ~~"collapsible"~~ stock ~~housed in~~ the ~~real P90's rear equipment compartment~~, although that's only speculation.

	The Patten PK470 seems to be an attempt at a futurized piston-driven [[M4A1]]-type assault rifle, inevitably with aspects of the [[Heckler & Koch XM8]] thrown in, along with an exposed gas piston tube above the barrel like a [[Heckler & Koch G36]]. It fires in semi or full-auto and holds 30 rounds. Early versions showed two variants; the first with rail-attached iron sights (PK470), the second with an ACOG (PK570A). Early versions also bore a grooved STANAG magazine. In the final game the version with the iron-sights has been removed in favor of the scoped version taking up its name, and the magazine is plastic and has a raised checker pattern similar to Bulgarian ~~Waffle~~ pattern magazines. The iron-sighted version is still used as its icon in the arsenal-selection menu, and plastic soldiers in a multiplayer map based on a backyard sandbox can be seen carrying that version of the weapon. When reloading, Beckett will slap the bolt-release on the left side of the rifle like AR-15 based rifles, though the animation seems to show Becket hitting somewhere around the side of the carry handle or scope; it's possible the animators at Monolith didn't understand what part of the gun was supposed to be struck.

	A frequently forgotten weapon, due to it being available for use exclusively in multiplayer, is the only usable weapon to return from the first game: A ported "Baksha ASP Rifle", renamed the "Kohler and Boch IDW-15 Semi-Auto Rifle", which despite the name now can be fired in both semi-auto and burst mode. Other than the addition of a new fire mode, it differs from the ASP only in its reduced capacity of 12 rounds. Like its predecessor, it is based heavily on the [[IMI Tavor TAR-21]] assault rifle.

	A frequently forgotten weapon, due to it being available for use exclusively in multiplayer, is the only usable weapon to return from the first game: A ported "Baksha ASP Rifle", renamed the "Kohler and Boch IDW-15 Semi-Auto Rifle", which now ~~fires~~ in both ~~Semi~~ and ~~Burst~~.

A frequently forgotten weapon, due to it being available for use exclusively in multiplayer, is the only usable weapon to return from the first game: A ported "Baksha ASP Rifle", renamed the "Kohler and Boch IDW-15 Semi-Auto Rifle", which despite the name now can be fired in both semi-auto and burst mode. Other than the addition of a new fire mode, it differs from the ASP only in its reduced capacity of 12 rounds. Like its predecessor, it is based heavily on the [[IMI Tavor TAR-21]] assault rifle.
