The pistols are the cheapest guns in the game. They are a player's secondary weapon, and usually are only used in pistol-only rounds; at the start of the game when nobody can afford larger guns; or when ammunition supplies for the larger guns have been exhausted. They are only semi-automatic, and typically lack power, but can be quite effective if aimed carefully. | The pistols are the cheapest guns in the game.

The Glock is low-powered, but accurate. It is the default terrorist starting pistol, and is dirt cheap, but is often not particularly useful unless you are very accurate. If you have a fast finger, buy this gun or join the terrorist team for a free gun. In some versions, this has an unlimited fire rate. If your finger is not so fast, use bursts and go for headshots. | The Glock is low-powered, but accurate.

The USP is the default counter-terrorist starting pistol, packing a greater firepower into a similar size and weight. The added advantage of being able to silence the USP means that counter-terrorists often have an advantage in pistol rounds (i.e. at the start of a new game when nobody's got any money), though it makes the crosshair wider, imparing accuracy when firing multiple shots. | The USP is the default counter-terrorist starting pistol, packing a greater firepower into a similar size and weight.

When sniping with the G3/SG-1, it is important not to get carried away with the fact that this gun ''is'' an auto-sniper: each consecutive automatic shot is considerably less accurate than the last, and going overboard with rapid fire will quickly empty the twenty-round magazine. It is a powerful weapon, and its shots can go through walls and boxes, normally killing with two shots. | ||

It is banned on | The AWP is the largest and most powerful sniper rifle, killing in one shot in most cases (in the case of a direct, unobstructed shot, only being hit in the leg is survivable). It is banned on many servers, but if you are allowed to use it, make good use of the scope. The AWP's scope is very detailed, and proficient snipers can jump out from behind cover, zoom in, fire and kill somebody then hide again multiple times and not get hurt. Training for hours offline with bots or online in deathmatch servers is the best way to go about learning. The drawback of this gun is that it isn't very accurate while moving, you have to actually stop moving and fire for the bullet to hit the target. Also, beware that this gun is sometimes believed to be a cheap gun because of its very high power and overusing it is discouraged in public servers. However unknown to others is the fact that this gun can be defeated. Using zig-zagging and unpredictable movement an awper can be taken down. This takes a bit of practice but can be achieved. | ||
To chamber a new round faster than would otherwise be possible, you can change to a pistol, then back to the AWP very quickly. If practiced enough, this will result in a faster chamber time. This weapon is almost exclusively known as the AWP (Arctic Warfare Police), but is actually intended to be the AWM (Arctic Warfare Magnum). | To chamber a new round faster than would otherwise be possible, you can change to a pistol, then back to the AWP very quickly.
