Galil AR | Tornado

Origin Story

The Galil AR | Tornado, released on November 19, 2019, as part of Operation Shattered Web, introduced a simple yet visually distinct rifle to The Norse Collection. While not a high-prestige item, it serves as an accessible entry point for collectors seeking a piece from the otherwise rare Norse Collection. The skin is valued for its clean, solid-color aesthetic, making it a popular choice as a craft base.

Drop Chance

Galil AR | Tornado is Consumer Grade, the most common drop tier in CS2. It can drop as an end-of-match reward from active competitive play on the Norse Collection item pool. Map drops follow a weighted rarity system that heavily favors common grades, so Consumer Grade drops are uncommon and Valve doesn't publish per-skin odds. There are 4 other Consumer Grade skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. Most copies enter the market through trade-up contracts or direct purchase at a listed seller's price.

Skin Condition

Float range 0.06 to 0.8. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New ($58.25): The solid tornado-color blocks are clean and nearly uniform with only minor micro-wear at exposed edges, showcasing maximum color vibrancy.
• Minimal Wear ($18.72): Color blocks remain mostly intact and vibrant, with light edge wear starting on the barrel front, stock corners, and magazine edges.
• Field-Tested ($11.15): Noticeable edge wear and small worn patches appear on the foregrip edges, receiver front, and stock corners, making the tornado color scheme look more muted.
• Well-Worn ($10.37): Significant edge wear and larger worn regions appear on the barrel, handguard, magazine, and stock, with more metal visible and a duller, patchier appearance.
• Battle-Scarred ($9.69): Extensive wear with large, irregular worn patches and heavy chipping along nearly all edges, causing the tornado color scheme to appear washed out and fragmented.

Model

Tornado uses the legacy Galil AR model, introduced with Operation Shattered Web on November 19, 2019. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
