If you're just starting to build your skin collection, it makes sense to focus first on the weapons that are always in your hands at the beginning of any match — starting pistols: the Glock-18 for terrorists and the USP-S or P2000 for counter-terrorists. Check out this skin selection to add some flair to the opening rounds and kick off your new collection.
Glock-18 Skins
The Glock-18 is the default pistol for the terrorist side. Its real-world prototypes are commonly used both as self-defense weapons and by law enforcement across the globe. In CS2, the Glock-18 features two firing modes — semi-automatic and three-round burst, making it effective in close-quarter encounters.
Glock-18 Moonrise
Glock-18 Moonrise is a solid choice if you're looking for an affordable and stylish pistol. The lower half of the frame is left gray, while the upper section features a night cityscape on a purple background. The layout of skyscrapers varies depending on the pattern index.
Glock-18 Block-18
Glock-18 Block-18 is a unique skin whose design alters the perceived shape of the weapon. Thanks to its creative texture, the pistol looks as though it’s assembled from toy building blocks — brightly colored, naturally.
Glock-18 Vogue
There are several skins featuring eyes in CS2, but Glock-18 Vogue is one of the most popular. The grip is painted in purple, transitioning into a red-orange gradient on the upper part. Nearly the entire slide is covered with wide-open, beautifully illustrated eyes.
Glock-18 Wasteland Rebel
Glock-18 Wasteland Rebel is perfect for fans of graffiti-style skins. Over a worn light brown pattern, the bold phrase “KILL THEM ALL” is scrawled in white letters, with paint drips adding extra character.
Glock-18 Umbral Rabbit
The design of Glock-18 Umbral Rabbit is clearly inspired by refined Asian painting. A leaping rabbit set against a backdrop of pagodas, flowers, and swirling clouds makes this skin a perfect fit for any Eastern-themed collection.
USP-S Skins
The USP-S is one of the two default pistols for counter-terrorists. Its most notable feature is the suppressor, which enables stealthy engagements from a distance.
USP-S Cortex
USP-S Cortex is one of the most popular skins for this pistol, thanks to its vivid design. The grip features a skeleton with its head exploded, and the brain matter flows along the barrel, forming the letters USP on the suppressor.
USP-S Kill Confirmed
Another dynamic design worth mentioning is USP-S Kill Confirmed. A bullet’s winding trajectory stretches along the slide and suppressor, striking a flaming-eyed skull — a dramatic illustration of this pistol’s lethality in skilled hands.
USP-S Ticket to Hell
USP-S Ticket to Hell is the go-to option for those who prefer cleaner, minimalist designs. Despite using only two colors, this pistol stands out — the frame is covered with various technical symbols and markings, and a toothy mouth sits just above the grip.
USP-S Printstream
USP-S Printstream is a minimalist skin that looks great on its own but also serves as a solid base for sticker combinations. Its only drawback is the high price, especially for Factory New versions, which can exceed $100.
USP-S Jawbreaker
USP-S Jawbreaker is another popular graffiti-style skin. A wide-open, monstrous jaw spans the entire grip and barrel, while the suppressor features overlapping text. If you’re into beast-themed skins, this one’s a must-have.
P2000 Skins
The P2000 is the alternative starting pistol for counter-terrorists. Compared to the USP-S, it offers a larger magazine and more reserve ammo — a potentially decisive advantage in pistol rounds.
P2000 Fire Elemental
P2000 Fire Elemental is one of the most well-known skins for this pistol. The vivid depiction of a fiery orange spirit against a bright blue background is unmistakable. In good condition, it typically sells for $10–20.
P2000 Imperial Dragon
P2000 Imperial Dragon is the first that comes to mind when talking about engraved pistols. A traditional Asian dragon filled with fine details appears on a dark orange background. A bonus feature — as float increases, the colors get darker but the skin doesn’t visibly wear out.
P2000 Lifted Spirits
P2000 Lifted Spirits will likely appeal to horror fans. Mysterious spirits rise above a shadowy forest, forming the central motif. The lower part of the pistol remains dark brown, featuring an interesting detail — several crossed-out tally marks, perhaps a kill count.
P2000 Wicked Sick
P2000 Wicked Sick is ideal for fans of neon tones and bold color combinations. Its abstract geometric pattern, using bright violet, blue, and orange, is slightly offset to create an effect reminiscent of the Chromatic Aberration series.
P2000 Acid Etched
P2000 Acid Etched is another vibrant skin in a similar style. A dark base is overlaid with a vivid pattern of green, yellow, and orange streaks, resembling acid burns.
