AWP | Lightning Strike
- 0 - 0.08 Float range
- The Arms Deal Collection Collection
- $408.39 From, across 4 marketplaces
AWP | Lightning Strike is a covert rifle skin for the AWP. It drops from the CS:GO Weapon Case, which arrived on 14 August 2013.
The paint wears between 0 and 0.08, so you will find it in Factory New and Minimal Wear. Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred never exists for it, so any listing claiming otherwise is a different skin.
A StatTrak and Souvenir version exists and usually carries a premium over the plain one.
Right now the cheapest listing sits at $408.39 and the priciest variant at $1,833.26, across 4 marketplaces. The table below breaks that down by wear.
High risk and high reward, the infamous AWP is recognizable by its signature report and one-shot, one-kill policy. It has been painted with a lightning strike motif using anodizing effect paints over a metallic base coat. Sometimes you don't need to strike the same place twice

Lowest active listing per marketplace, as the price a buyer pays. Steam quotes what the seller receives, so its column has Steam's fee added back on, which is why cheap items look so much dearer there. A dash means nothing is listed in that condition at the moment. Trade holds and item float are not reflected here, so check the listing before you buy.

What the wear names and tags mean
- Factory New (FN)
- Float between 0.00 and 0.07. Paint is untouched, and this is where the price premium sits.
- Minimal Wear (MW)
- Float between 0.07 and 0.15. Light scuffing on edges, usually the sweet spot between looks and cost.
- StatTrak™
- Counts your confirmed kills with that weapon. The counter resets if the item is traded through certain tools, and the version is a separate item on the market.
- Souvenir
- Dropped to viewers during a Major. Carries team and player stickers from that match, which is why prices swing wildly between otherwise identical items.
- Float
- A number from 0 to 1 describing how worn the paint is. Lower is cleaner. Two items in the same condition can look different, and collectors pay extra for the extremes.
