Handling Tips

The 228 Compact in Counter-Strike Source is one of the most underused pistols, and for good reason. It's relatively average clip size combined with it's low damage output makes this one of the worst performing guns in it's price range. For example, the Desert Eagle, aka Nighthawk, is a superior sidearm( more stopping power, quicker reload, 2.19 secs vs p228's 2.74) and is only $50 more; running in at a total cost of $650! Despite the negatives, there must be some good things about this gun. Hmm let me think.. Well...

1.) It sounds awesome.

2.) It fires fast.

3.) Ummm see number 1?.
