FAQ
The Arms Deal Update is shipping ten themed weapon collections containing over 70 unique finishes for your in-game ordnance. Scroll through the collections below, then check out the F.A.Q. for more information on how to get them.
THE eSPORTS WEAPON CASE
Purchasing an eSports Case Key will help support the CS:GO competitive gaming community. A portion of all sales from the eSports Weapon Case will be redirected to fund prize purses at upcoming CS:GO eSport events worldwide.
THE CS:GO WEAPON CASE
Highly exclusive and visually unique, these themed weapon finishes can only be obtained from a CS:GO Weapon Case. The CS:GO Weapon Case is the first in a series of limited edition cases for collectors in the market for a rare finish for their weapon of choice.
Silenced Weapons
You asked, we listened. Fan favorites from Counter-Strike and Counter-Strike Source, the Silenced M4A1 and Silenced USP Pistol make their long-awaited debut in Global Offensive's inventory as stock weapons
Less expensive but with a smaller magazine than their unsilenced counterparts, both weapons have detachable silencers that make them quieter and suppress tracer fire while providing less recoil and better accuracy.
Confirmed Kills
Available exclusively through case drops, weapons with StatTrak modules give you an up-to-date record of every kill you get with that weapon.
Get Creative
In the near future, you’ll be able to upload your own weapon finishes and custom knife models through the CS:GO Workshop. Popular up-voted finshes may even appear in future CS:GO updates!

FAQ
Introducing the Arms Deal Update, which lets you experience all the illicit thrills of black market weapons trafficking without any of the hanging around in darkened warehouses getting knifed to death. The Arms Deal Update lets you collect, buy, sell and trade over 100 all-new decorated weapons that you can equip in-game.
You can start collecting decorated weapons via timed weapon drops just by playing CS:GO on official and community servers. You can also get them by opening dropped weapon cases with the appropriate key, or by trading with other players through Steam’s Trading interface. Additionally, any decorated weapons you’ve found, bought or traded can be sold on the Steam Marketplace.
We also want The Arms Deal Update to give back to the community, which is why we’re happy to announce the eSports Weapon Case. A portion of the proceeds from sales of eSports Case Keys will go towards prize purses at CS:GO community competitive events.
Last but not least, as part of the Arms Deal Update, we’ve added two new stock weapons available to everyone, the M4A1-S and USP-S.
Find out more about the update here and through the Arms Deal FAQ, or simply hop into the game and check it out yourself. And as always, be sure to let us know what you think on the CS:GO forums, Reddit, and the Steam Community Discussions.
