Sniper rifles in CS:GO are part of the premium segment of weaponry offered within the game. The segment includes three weapons: the AWP, G3SG1, and the SCAR-20.

Counter-Strike became a more interesting game to me the moment I embraced that it's as much about information gathering as it is about gathering sick AWP noscopes.

AWP: Atheris ($3 - $30) The Atheris is a snazzy skin that is reasonably priced, making it a popular choice among CS:GO, players.

At this point, AWP-Dragon Lore is synonymous with CS:GO. For many years it ruled as the most priced skin in CS:GO community. A souvenir Factory-New version of Dragon Lore can cost up to $425000.
