Counter-Strike equipment

In the computer game Counter-Strike, at the beginning of a round each player has a certain amount of time (usually 30 seconds) to buy equipment. The buy menu contains the following:

Handguns/Pistols

Manufacturer	Model	Price	Avaliability	Secondary Mode	Capacity	Notes
Heckler & Koch	.45 USP Tactical	$500	CT Start	Silenced	12 x .45 ACP	Silencer slightly reduces accuracy and damage
GLOCK	18C Select Fire	$400	T Start	3 shot burst	20 x 9mm	Often called the "pea shooter"
IMI	Desert Eagle.50 AE	$650	all	none	7 x .50AE slugs	Very powerful. Only pistol with wall penetration.
SIG	P288	$600	all	none	13 x .357SIG	Moderate power, highly accurate
Beretta	Dual 96G Elites (akimbo)	$1000	T only	none	2 x 15 x 9mm	Low to average power and accuracy. Slow reload. Use as a cheap submachinegun.
Fabrique Nationale	Five SeveN	$750	CT only	none	20 x 5.7mm	Very accurate

Shotguns

Shotguns are reloaded one shell at a time and can be fired while reloading.

Manufacturer	Model	Price	Avaliability	Secondary Mode	Capacity	Notes
Benelli	M3 Super 90 Combat	$1700	all	none	8 x 12 ga.	Sizable recoil time between shots. Large amounts of damage. One shot at close range can kill immediately.
Benelli	XM1014	$3000	all	none	7 x 12 ga.	Empties quickly. Less damage per shot than pump. Nicknamed the "noob cannon."

Submachine guns/Automatics

Manufacturer	Model	Price	Avaliability	Secondary Mode	Capacity	Notes
Heckler & Koch	MP5 Navy	$1500	all	none	30 x 9mm Parabellum	Accurate, cheap, mostly controllable at full auto. Very popular.
Steyr	TMP	$1250	CT only	Silenced	30 x 9mm Parabellum	quite controllable, low power.
Fabrique Nationale	P90	$2450	all	none	50 x 5.7mm	Accuracy is bad. Full auto doesn't make it worse. Ammo advantage.
Ingram	MAC-10	$1400	T only	none	30 x .45 ACP	Decent control at full auto.
Heckler & Koch	UMP45	$1700	all	none	25 x .45 ACP	Higher power version of mp5. Less accurate first shot and less controllable full auto.

Rifles

All rifles can shoot through thin objects and crates and damage things on the other side.

Manufacturer	Model	Price	Avaliability	Secondary Mode	Capacity	Notes
IMI	Galil	$2000	Terrorists only	none	35 rounds 5.56x45mm	A highly effective terrorist weapon when money is tight. Accuracy goes down with range.
IZH	AK-47	$2500	Terrorists only	none	30 rounds 7.62x51mm (in real life, 7.62x39)	More power than Colt. Less accurate and controllable when fired rapidly. Nearly a sniper rifle when burst firing.
SIG	SG-552 Commando	$3500	Terrorists only	2x Scope	30 rounds 5.56x45mm	Similar to Steyr Aug. Seems more accurate.
GIAT Industries	FAMAS	$2250	Counter-terrorists only	3 round burst	25 rounds 5.56x45mm	Not as powerful, but the three-round burst mode makes it suitable for delivering three bullets to your opponent's head fairly accurately.
Colt	M4A1 Carbine	$3100	Counter-terrorists only	Supressor	30 rounds 5.56x45mm	Accurate and controllable.
Steyr Daimler Puch	Steyr AUG	$3500	Counter-terrorists only	2x Scope	30 rounds 5.56x45mm	Lower accuracy and controllability than Colt.
Steyr Daimler Puch	Steyr Scout Sniper Rifle	$2750	all	2-4x scope	10 rounds 7.62x51mm	Needs a headshot to drop someone in one shot.
Accuracy International	Arctic Warefare Magnum	$4750	all	2-4x Scope	10x.338 Lapua	Powerful (400% damage with 1 shot to head). Accuracy quite bad while moving or without scope. One of the few weapons that will drop a person with 1 shot to the chest. This weapon drops an unarmored opponent in one shot no matter where the hit, be it arm, leg, or foot. This is commonly a "disgraced" weapon, as many feel it is too easy to kill with it.
Heckler and Koch	G3/SG-1 Semi-Auto Sniper Rifle	$5000	Terrorists only	2-4x Scope	20x7.62 x 51 mm	Requires several shots to kill, but has long recoil time between shots.
SIG	SG-550 Sniper Rifle	$4200	Counter-terrorists only	2-4x Scope	30 rounds 5.56x45mm	Semi automatic sniper rifle. Similar to G3, but less powerful.

Machine guns

Manufacturer	Model	Price	Avaliability	Secondary Mode	Capacity	Notes
Fabrique Nationale	M249 Para	$5750	all	none	200 round belt	Hard to control. Shoot everywhere you think someone might be. This is the most expensive weapon available.

Miscellaneous

Item	Price	Function
Kevlar armor	$650	Offers mild protection from bullets and grenades.
Kevlar armor with helmet	$1000	Offers slightly more protection for the head.
Flashbang grenade	$200	If you are near it or facing it, your screen will go white and sound will turn off for a short while. NOT recommended for new players as it is very easy to blind your own team accidentally. Max capacity 2.
HE grenade	$300	"Safety grenades" do about 50 hitpoints of damage at the point of explosion. Great for softening enemies, finishing off wounded or scaring ambushers. Great practice for new players, though they should only be used after you've shot your enemy a few times. When friendly-fire is off, the grenade can still injure or kill you if mis-thrown, but it won't injure your teammates. Max capacity 1.
Smoke grenade	$200	Creates distraction and cover near grenade. Max capacity 1.
Defuse kit	$200	Counter-terrorists only on de_ maps. Reduces time to defuse bombs.
Night vision goggles	$1250	Allows wearer to see in total darkness. Taking goggles on and off makes a distinct sound that your enemies can hear. In normal light, the goggles can make things difficult to see.
Tactical Shield	$2200	Counter-terrorists only. When deployed you are invulnerable to frontward attacks, but suffer a movement penalty and cannot shoot. When not deployed it hangs off to the side offering less protection, but allows you to shoot. This item can only be used with pistols.

The Arctic Warfare Magnum (AWM) is often referred to as the AWP. This is probably due to a misunderstanding in previous versions of the game, where it was called the Arctic Warfare/Police.

Each player also starts out with a combat knife; unlike the other weapons, the knife cannot be dropped. The knife has a fast, moderate-damage primary attack and a slow, high-damage secondary attack. The knife's secondary can kill most opponents with two stabs. Either knifemode does a lot more damage when attacking an enemy in the back. Players are able to run faster with the knife at ready than with a gun out.
