CSGO/CS2: Best sticker positions for Rifles!

Best sticker positions

Every weapon in CS:GO has an objectively best positioning for Stickers!

So we have taken the time out of our day to show you the best sticker positions for every gun and show you why it simply is the best.

Keep in mind, that the position to where a sticker is applied also factors in the sticker percentage price of said weapon.

The “Best pos” is always tied to the best visibility. Be it in-game or on screenshots.
In this article, we will show you the best positioning for every weapon in the “Rifle” category.
We go over the classic rifles, and also the snipers and auto snipers, so strap in.

Getting overpay for stickered skins

Generally speaking only tournament, old, discontinued, or rare stickers get overpaid, meaning you get more money for your skin, if specific stickers have been applied.

Your sticker has to be wanted. A good example of overpay are the following tournament stickers:
- Dreamhack 2013 Souvenirs
- Katowice 2014
- Dreamhack 2014
- Katowice 2015 holos
- Krakow 2017 golds

The Rifles

Just like the pistols, the rifles also follow a pattern when it comes to what counts as “the best sticker pos”, or “best pos”. Most of the time that is directly above the magazine or on the front of the weapon.

The AWP, for example, wears its best sticker position on the scope.

Conclusion:

We hope this guide has taught you about stickers and their best and worst positionings.
Always keep the position in mind when overpaying for a sticker.

Four times sticker crafts get around 30-45% of the sticker itself added, but this also varies and can go way higher depending on how rare and demanded the sticker is.
For Katowice 2014 four times crafts, for instance, you will probably pay more than 40+%, seen as not too many exist on good guns or newer skins.
