Glock-18 | Bunsen Burner

Origin Story

The Glock-18 Bunsen Burner, released on May 26, 2015, as part of The Falchion Collection with Operation Bloodhound, features a blue patina that has been polished off parts of the slide to create a graphic flame design. This skin is generally considered a budget-friendly, older-era Glock option, often chosen for its blue and fiery aesthetic. While it is not a high-end collector's item, its distinctive visual identity makes it a popular choice for players seeking a themed Glock. The flame graphic along the slide is the most prominent visual element in first-person view.

Drop Chance

Glock-18 | Bunsen Burner is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. From the Falchion Case: approximately 13.32% per opening (roughly 1 in 8). The 79.92% Mil-Spec tier rate is split across 6 Mil-Spec skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~1.33% from the Falchion Case (about 1 in 75). These per-skin odds assume equal weighting within tier — Valve publishes tier rates but doesn't formally confirm even distribution across skins in a tier.
