CS:GO Weapons Case 3 Offers Incredible Pistol Skins for Gamers

Adding and updating content is how games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive stay relevant and entertaining. Gamers built a strong community around this first-person shooter game. An important part of that community is the thriving economy. Players can acquire various skins for their guns, knives, and even gloves. These skins have different levels of rarity which can make them more or less valuable. Occasionally, developers will add a new weapon to the game, opening the door to more skins and possibilities for players. A CS:GO case released in 2014 did just that. Featuring the CZ75-Auto, the February 12, 2014 update gave players access to the first full-auto pistol in the game. And with it came Weapon Case 3.

Examining CS:GO Weapon Case 3

The first container released in 2014 in conjunction with the CZ75-Auto was the first and only weapon-specific case to be released in the game so far. Of course, a new weapon needs new skins so players can customize it to fit their aesthetic and play style. The Weapon Case 3 featured only pistol skins from The Arms Deal 3 Collection, including four skins for the CZ75-Auto.

The CS:GO Weapon Case 3 is the third in this series with the original case released in August 2013 followed by Weapon Case 2 in November 2013, and then finally this Weapon Case 3. While the contents of the case largely favored the new weapon, there were other notable skins as well.

Market Value and Rarity

The CS:GO Weapons Case 3 is currently in the rare drop pool. Players with Prime Status have a 1% chance of collecting a case from the rare drop pool after they level up for the first time each week. However, with more than 20 cases in the pool, getting the desired case can often take months. With only around 1,100 listings on the Steam Community Market, purchasing one of these cases will cost about $10 and offers no hints or guarantees as to what is inside.

The knives in the case are extremely rare which adds to their value. It’s not unusual to see a few of the knife skins listed around the $2,000 mark with many coming in at a price point over $1,000. The possibility of getting one of these extraordinary drops is part of what drives the CS:GO economy.

The most expensive weapon skin in this case is the Factory New version of the CZ75-Auto Victoria with StatTrak. The price tag on this skin is just over $200. Other Factory New skins with StatTrak technology from the case range in price from $2 up to $100, depending on the skin and condition.

Get Your CS:GO Weapon Case 3

While it is possible to get the case as an in-game drop, it isn’t very likely. Players may be more interested in purchasing or trading for the case or the skins inside if it ends up being more economical to do so. However, for those hard-to-get valuable skins, purchasing or trading might not be an option. Thankfully, if it’s a knife skin they’re after, there are several cases containing the same knives to give players more chances at getting one of the coveted drops.
