Closing thoughts
The AWP is one of the most iconic weapons in Counter-Strike. It is capable of killing an opponent in one shot through armour anywhere on the body (except the legs). As a bolt-action sniper rifle it is important the player is able to hit their shots consistently, especially as it can only fire 5 rounds before a reload is required.
As the Terrorist teams semi-automatic sniper rifle, the G3SG1 can deal staggering damage output with accuracy.
