Best CS2 loadout under $250

Each weapon slot gets a fixed share of the $250: the AK-47, M4 and AWP about a fifth each, the Desert Eagle, Glock-18 and USP-S less, and the FAMAS, Galil AR, MP9, MAC-10 and P250 a few percent — so the money goes where you see it most. Each slot then takes the most expensive real listing that fits its share (preferring the better wear on a tie), and whatever is left over upgrades slots in that same priority order. Here the six core slots take $217.85 of the $249.93.

“Most expensive that fits” uses market price as the only signal: DropLabz doesn't rate how skins look, and nothing here claims to. Every pick is a non-StatTrak listing; the loadout builder can switch to StatTrak, add a knife, or use any budget.
