Buy the Star Citizen P8-AR Rifle
The P8-AR Rifle is a civilian ballistic assault rifle for Star Citizen, manufactured by Behring Applied Technology. This Size 2 personal weapon is designed for players who want a practical semi-automatic rifle with a compact 15-round magazine and support for useful weapon attachments. It is the civilian descendant of the UEE Marines’ P8-ARM rifle, but it is a separate weapon and should not be confused with the military P8-ARM.

The P8-AR uses ballistic ammunition and offers a controlled alternative to fully automatic rifles. Its semi-automatic operation suits deliberate fire at short and medium engagement distances, while the supported optics, barrel, and underbarrel attachment points allow you to adapt the weapon to your preferred FPS loadout.
Why choose the P8-AR?
- Reliable civilian rifle platform: The P8-AR provides a recognizable Behring weapon design for everyday personal combat in the current LIVE game environment.
- Controlled ballistic fire: Semi-automatic operation is useful when you prefer aiming and shot placement over sustained automatic fire.
- Customizable loadout: Attachment support lets you configure the rifle with compatible optics, barrel components, and underbarrel equipment.
- Practical personal weapon: As a Size 2 rifle with a 15-round magazine, it fits naturally into FPS equipment planning without being confused with a sidearm or heavy weapon.
Availability and variants
Current item data identifies the base P8-AR as both lootable and craftable. Its availability and distribution can change with the Star Citizen patch and item system, so a specific in-game source, location, or stock status should not be assumed. The P8-AR is listed in the 4.8.2 LIVE item data used for this description.
Documented versions include the Blackguard, CitizenCon 2954, Metro Camo, and Dominion Camo variants. These names describe variants or finishes rather than different weapon classes. Unless a specific variant is shown in your selected offer, the product refers to the P8-AR rifle itself and not automatically to every documented finish.
Choose the right Star Citizen FPS equipment
The P8-AR is a suitable choice if you are looking specifically for a ballistic semi-automatic assault rifle. It is not the same as the P8-ARM, and it should not be selected if your goal is a military-issue rifle or a different firing configuration. For broader FPS equipment, you can browse our Star Citizen items selection or compare available options in the Star Citizen armor category.
Ordering the P8-AR Rifle
Select the P8-AR offer that matches your intended weapon and review the available product options before checkout. Because item availability and distribution may depend on the current game build, the exact variant and fulfillment conditions should be confirmed for the selected listing. Do not assume that a P8-AR order includes a particular camouflage finish, attachments, ammunition, or another weapon unless the offer explicitly states it.
