AWP Share

Overview

The AWP is the quintessential sniper rifle in the CS series, renowned for its one-shot-kill capability against armored enemies. High-risk and high-reward, its tremendous stopping power is balanced by its hefty price tag and slow rate of fire. It's most effective in the hands of a skilled marksman who can hold angles and eliminate key targets, fundamentally changing the dynamics of a round.
