CS2 M14 Leak: Stats, Price and What the Game Files Show

The entry arrived on September 23, 2026, inside the same build as the Rush Hour update, and dataminers aquaismissing and Thour spotted it within hours. Valve has not said a word about it, and the gun cannot be bought or picked up in any mode.

We did not want to write this one from tweets, so we opened the raw weapons file ourselves, using SteamDB’s public copy of the game files, and checked every later build up to October 5. The M14 has five rounds in the magazine, not one.

It aims through iron sights rather than a sniper scope. Half of its stats are copied straight from the AWP, firing sound included, which tells you how early this prototype is.

Anything in this article that does not come from the files is marked as speculation, and we will update the piece as soon as Valve ships something more.

If you want to sort out your rifles and snipers before a new gun shakes up the buy menu, you can trade CS2 skins on SkinsMonkey at any time.

One Entry in weapons.vdata: Where the M14 Came From Every gun in CS2 is defined in a file called weapons.vdata, which holds its price, damage, magazine size, movement speed and dozens of other values.
