AWP | Gungnir

Origin Story

The AWP | Gungnir, released on November 19, 2019, with Operation Shattered Web, is a highly coveted skin from The Norse Collection. The Gungnir's visual identity places it in a category of mythic luxury, emphasizing a royal and decorative aesthetic.

Drop Chance

AWP | Gungnir is Covert, a Red-tier skin, the rarest standard drop grade. 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 Covert drops are uncommon and Valve doesn't publish per-skin odds. It is the only Covert skin in the collection. Most copies enter the market through trade-up contracts or direct purchase at a listed seller's price.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.6. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New (No Recent Price): This tier presents very bright and clean visuals, with crisp blue and ivory contrast and maximum pearlescent sheen across the body.
• Minimal Wear (No Recent Price): Small scuffs or micro-chips may appear on high-contact edges like the muzzle or stock, but the main artwork and color vibrancy remain largely intact.
• Field-Tested (No Recent Price): Noticeable edge chipping along the barrel and stock and a subtle dulling of the pearlescent effect become visible, though the Norse artwork remains clearly readable.
• Well-Worn (No Recent Price): Heavy, continuous edge wear is present, with larger sections of the base material exposed and a further reduction of the pearlescent shine, making blue areas appear more faded.
• Battle-Scarred (No Recent Price): Extensive wear covers most high-contact surfaces, showing significant fading of blue tones, exposed underlayers, and clear loss of pearlescent richness, though the spear and ornamentation are still visible.

Model

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

How to Obtain

Price Range

The all-time median is $1,094.61.

Visual Theme

Gunsmith: Odin's spear travels down this custom painted pearlescent blue and ivory AWP. The skin is dominated by pearlescent blue and ivory tones, with intricate Norse-themed filigree and spear motifs.
