M249 | Impact Drill

Origin Story

The M249 Impact Drill, released on May 26, 2015, as part of Operation Bloodhound and The Chop Shop Collection, features a design with individual parts spray-painted in solid blue and orange. This color scheme gives the heavy machine gun a distinct, utilitarian appearance. Its in-game description notes the individual parts are deliberately colored, contributing to its "great equalizer" flavor text.

Drop Chance

M249 | Impact Drill 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 Chop Shop 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 3 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.
