Counter-Strike Global Offensive features countless varieties of different skins for different weapons. We’ve seen everything from dangerous and scary images to cute and colorful finish styles for every weapon. Today, we will be reviewing a unique type of skin in the game, red skins!

Top 10 Red CSGO Skins

As you can probably guess, the main attribute for these CS:GO skins will be the color red. It’s an assertive and daring color, perfect for letting your opponents know you mean business. Here are some of the best red skins currently in CS GO. 

M4A1-S | Hot Rod

When the Chop Shop Collection was released to the game in 2015, the M4A1-S Hot Rod was among the best items featured inside. This was during the initial stages of Operation Bloodhound and a red skin such as this was definitely something everyone was excited about. 

The chromed translucent red paint gives the weapon a nice premium feel. Everything except the barrel, buttstock, and the handle is painted with this color, whereas these parts are left with only a smooth black color. This skin is only available in Minimal Wear and Factory New conditions on the Steam Market. The starting price goes for around $160. 

• Released: 26 May 2016
• Starting Steam Price: $160

Glock-18 | Water Elemental

The Glock-18 is the only CSGO weapon that has this unique finish style. It’s one of the most gorgeous red CSGO skins that you can find inside the Operation Breakout Weapon Case, released in 2014. The skin is rather old and yet is still available in all wear levels, including StatTrak technology.

The entire pistol is painted with vibrant red colors, with a blue water elemental creature sitting in the middle. The detail on this skin is absolutely astonishing, making any owner proud to have such a unique piece of art for their Glock-18. 

• Released: 1 July 2014
• Starting Steam Price: $4.50
• Case Drop: Operation Breakout Weapon Case

M4A4 | Evil Daimyo

The M4A4 Evil Daimyo is a unique CS GO skin and part of the Falchion Case. It was added to the game in 2015 alongside Operation Bloodhound. The skin is available on Steam and other markets for a starting price of only around $3. 

As far as custom designs go, Evil Daimyo features relatively equal amounts of red, grey, and black paints across the entire body of the skin. Daimyo were powerful Japanese magnates who once ruled Japan. This skin features a few icons and symbols in their honor.

• Released: 26 May 2015
• Starting Steam Price: $3
• Case Drop: Falchion Case
• Float Range: 0.00 – 0.52

Desert Eagle | Crimson Web

The Crimson Web design pattern is popular among many weapons in CS GO, mostly knives. These are some of the most expensive skins as well. The Desert Eagle Crimson Web reaches prices of more than $500 with a starting price of only around $5. It is part of eSports 2014 Summer Case and is an original creation by Valve. 

Many players are already familiar with the unique Crimson Web design pattern. It features a dark red base color with spider web patterns spanning across its body. The Desert Eagle Crimson Web looks gorgeous in anything above Field-Tested, as it doesn’t age quite well and loses much of its unique pattern down the road. 

• Released: 10 July 2014
• Starting Steam Price: $5
• Case Drop: eSports 2014 Summer Case
• Float Range: 0.06 – 0.80

P250 | Muertos

The P250 Muertos is the perfect example of a great Red CS:GO skin. It was introduced to the game in 2015 with the Full Spectrum update. You can find this skin in Chroma Case or on the Steam Community Market at a starting price of $3.

This P250 skin is painted red with black circular patterns laid out on top. It also features a deadly skull on the slide of the pistol. The word “Muertos” is Spanish for “dead person”, which is exactly what your CSGO opponents will be when they come across you from now on. 

• Released: 8 January 2015
• Starting Steam Price: $3
• Case Drop: Chroma Case
• Float Range: 0.00 – 0.60

CZ75-Auto | Red Astor

Red Astor is a skin unique to the CZ74-Auto semi-automatic pistol in Counter-Strike Global Offensive. It is a part of the Chroma 3 Case and was added to the game in 2016 with the Trichromacy update. The starting price of the Red Astor skin is only $0.30.

The skin itself features a few colors including red, grey, and white as the main palette. Different parts of the weapon are painted with different colors and shades. The best part about this skin is that it ages quite nicely, as it looks pretty decent even in Battle-Scarred condition. All it really loses is part of its shine and brightness, as the pattern and design is left relatively visible and unaffected. 

• Released: 28 April 2016
• Starting Steam Price: $0.30
• Case Drop: Chroma 3 Case
• Float Range: 0.00 – 1.00

USP-S | Kill Confirmed

The USP-S Kill Confirmed is one of the most expensive red CS:GO skins out there and on this list. It was added with the Shadow Collection and the Shadow Case and can be found on Steam at a starting cost of $46. However, the USP-S Kill Confirmed can cost over $1000 in Factory New StatTrak condition. 

Regarding design pattern, this skin includes burgundy as the main color and features an image of a skull that’s been penetrated by a bullet. It’s one of the most unique and creative design patterns that also doesn’t get ruined too much as more wear and tear is applied to the skin. 

• Released: 17 September 2015
• Starting Steam Price: $46
• Case Drop: Shadow Case
• Float Range: 0.00 – 1.00

M4A4 | Howl

When it comes to unique and rare skins, the M4A4 Howl is as rare as things get. It’s currently the rarest skin in CSGO, making it impossibly hard to find a single listing on the Steam market. Even if you do find it, the starting price for this item is well over $1500.

The M4A4 was first introduced to the game inside the Huntsman Weapon Case. However, it was removed from the case and was changed from a Covert to Contraband grade due to art theft and a few other factors. Its appearance was also slightly modified due to the same reasons. Howl features a red base color with a fiery howling wolf in the middle.

• Released: 1 May 2014
• Starting Steam Price: $1600
• Case Drop: /
• Float Range: 0.00 – 0.40

AK-47 | Red Laminate

Red Laminate is one of the best and most attractive AK-47 skins in the game. It was released during the Arms Deal update that introduced skins to CSGO in 2013. The AK-47 Red Laminate is a part of the eSports 2013 Case and comes at a starting price of $22.

The skin itself doesn’t include a large area of red paint, but it’s the only color present alongside black. The only parts of the rifle that are painted red are the wooden parts, whereas the metal parts are left unchanged. The painted parts still retain the wooded appearance, giving an even more natural look.

• Released: 14 August 2013
• Starting Steam Price: $22
• Case Drop: eSports 2013 Case
• Float Range: 0.06 – 0.80

The inspiration for this design pattern comes from an anime film known as Akira, and it resembles a red sporty sci-fi bike present in the movie. It’s said to be an anime skin, which is a popular type of skin among anime fans and enthusiasts. 

• Released: 16 March 2017
