CS:GO Adds New Revolver In Winter Update

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has added a new case and a completely new gun to its Winter Update. The R8 Revolver is a brand new Pistol option for both CT and Terrorists and shares a spot with the Desert Eagle. At 850 it might seem like an expensive pistol to buy but it seems the hand canon is a canon indeed and packs a massive amount of damage and armor penetration.

The pistol only holds an 8 round cylinder and only has one addition clip at your disposal but the gun can kill another player with one shot to the body from short to medium range even with full armor. Players will need to have a steady aim and wind up their shot as the gun takes a bit to fire in primary mode as the cylinder clicks into position. The secondary mode is highly inaccurate by fires immediately. I've played a few games of CSGO since the update and its been Revolvers all around even in buy rounds.

The new update also includes the Revolver case which features a ton of new weapon finishes including two for the Revolver: The Revolver Fade and Crimson Web.
