All R8 Skins
The R8 revolver is a powerful weapon that can be purchased by both T and special forces. It has 8 rounds in the magazine and a similar number of spare cartridges. Players CS2 can fire the R8 revolver in two modes: double action and single action. In single action mode, the weapon's recoil is challenging to control, but it compensates with impressive damage when shots land accurately. In dual action mode, the rate of fire is slightly reduced, but the shots are more precise. This makes the revolver a popular choice for pistol rounds or as a backup weapon to more powerful firearms.
Among the main advantages of the R8 are:
- High power
- Lethal damage when hitting the head
- Excellent armor penetration
- Fast reload time
- Good accuracy
However, it also has some drawbacks, such as:
- Limited ammunition capacity
- Reduced rate of fire in double action mode
- High cost

How to Play with the R8
To make the most out of the R8 revolver, consider the following tips:
- Single Fire Mode: Best used in close combat. Aim for the torso, as 1-2 accurate shots can eliminate the enemy.
- Double Fire Mode: Best for long-range combat, especially when aiming for the head.
- Team Support: Avoid going solo; rely on the support of 1-2 teammates.
- Avoid Firing a Full Clip in Single Mode: Due to significant recoil, firing the entire clip is likely to miss, wasting ammunition.
- Dodging: Try to dodge enemy attacks. Once you find an opening, 2 shots to the torso will likely be enough to finish off your opponent.
Counterattacks Against R8
- Stay Cautious: If you're a pro in CS2, avoid getting too close to players using the R8, as its high damage makes it dangerous.
- High Rate of Fire Guns: Revolvers with a faster rate of fire are a good counter to the R8.
- Reloading: If you need to reload while facing an R8, find cover. If not, the R8 user may inflict lethal damage on you.
- Recommended Pistols: On both Terrorist and Counter-Terrorist sides, consider using the Five-SeveN or Tec-9, as they have sufficient rate of fire and can deal lethal damage to the enemy with a headshot.
