P2000
The P2000 is a semi-automatic pistol exclusive to the Counter-Terrorist side in Counter-Strike 2. It shares its equipment slot with the USP-S and offers more ammunition at the cost of lacking a silencer.
Overview
The P2000 is the alternative CT starting pistol, competing with the much more popular USP-S for the same equipment slot. It offers a 13-round magazine with 52 reserve rounds (significantly more ammo than the USP-S's 12/24), but lacks the silencer that makes the USP-S stealthy. The P2000 is considered the weaker choice by most players, but its additional ammunition can be valuable in extended engagements.
