How many bullets each weapon has in Counter-Strike 2 after the reload update

Valve changed the reload system in CS2 now bullets left in the magazine are “lost” if you reload before using them. At the same time, the developers reworked the total ammo reserve for weapons.

Pistols

Overall, most popular pistols received heavy ammo nerfs.

• Glock-18 — now 60 (was 120)

• USP-S — unchanged, 24

• P2000 — unchanged, 52

• P250 — buffed to 39

• Desert Eagle — reduced to 21

• CZ75-Auto — increased to 24

• Tec-9 — reduced to 54

• Five-Seven — heavily nerfed to 40

• Dual Berettas — now 60

• R8 Revolver — increased to 16

As a result, meta pistols were weakened, while less popular ones got slight buffs.

Submachine Guns (SMG)

Most SMGs had their ammo reduced, with a few exceptions.

• MP5-SD — 90

• MP7 — 90

• MP9 — only 60

• MAC-10 — 90

• UMP-45 — 75

• PP-Bizon — increased to 128

• P90 — unchanged, 100

Most SMGs now run out of ammo faster, except the Bizon.

Assault Rifles

Changes are minor but important.

• AK-47 — unchanged, 90

• M4A1-S — nerfed to 60

• M4A4 — buffed to 120

• Galil AR — heavily buffed to 140

• FAMAS — slightly buffed to 100

• AUG — unchanged, 90

• SG 553 — unchanged, 90

In short, M4A1-S was nerfed, while most other rifles were buffed.

Sniper Rifles and Machine Guns

The most significant changes happened here.

• AWP — now only 15 bullets

• SSG 08 — heavily reduced to 20

• SCAR-20 — 40

• G3SG1 — 40

• Negev — unchanged, 300

• M249 — unchanged, 200

It’s now clear that playing with sniper rifles became much harder, as ammo runs out very quickly.

Shotguns

Almost no changes, except one.

• MAG-7 — nerfed to 15

• Sawed-off — 32 (unchanged)

• Nova — 32 (unchanged)

• XM1014 — 21 (unchanged)

There are no major changes here, but players will still need to manage ammo more carefully.
