'''Weapons''' are varying items that are used in combat, executing special [[Taunts#Taunt kills|taunts]], or are [[reskins]] for the player to admire. Weapons are given to players as random [[drops]], by [[crafting]], by completing [[achievements]], uncrating [[crates]] or [[trading]], and may carry an [[item quality]].

== Bugs ==
 
* Sometimes lighting can make some weapons appear differently, such as making them appear orange, purple or shiny.
 
* Picking up weapons that have particle effects attached to it (Community Sparkle or Unusual effects) will cause the wearer's hat to get out of sync (if the hat goes {{code|bip_head}} bone), similar to the [[Particle_effects#Bugs|bug for the Genteel Smoke effect]], though, this can be easily fixed by simply switching off weapons.
 
<!-- This section is hidden until discussion about which part should keep is done.
 
== Notes ==
 
Before the [[Tough Break Update]], when switching between weapons, there was a 0.67 (2/3) second delay before the new weapon can be fired. Some weapons could change the delay while equipped, which was applied to all weapons equipped at the time:
 
 
* The [[Degreaser]] decreased this time by 65%, to 0.23 (7/30) seconds.
 
* The [[Reserve Shooter]] decreased this time by 15%, to 0.57 (17/30) seconds.
 
** The Reserve Shooter and the Degreaser together decreased this time by 70.25%, to 0.1983 (119/600) seconds.
 
* The [[Fists of Steel]] increased this time by 20%, to 0.8 seconds.
 
 
The [[Tough Break Update]] reduced the weapon switch time from 0.67 (2/3) seconds to 0.5 seconds. All weapons that previously increased or decreased the switch speed across all equipped weapons now only affect switching to or from that specific weapon:
 
 
* The [[Panic Attack]] deploys 50% faster, deploying in 0.25 seconds.
 
* The Reserve Shooter deploys 20% faster, deploying in 0.4 seconds.
 
* All weapons that are classified as [[swords]] (bar the [[Three-Rune Blade]]) deploy 100% slower and holster 100% slower, both deploying and holstering in 1 second.
 
** Switching from the Reserve Shooter to the Half-Zatoichi takes 1 second.
 
** Switching from the Half-Zatoichi to the Reserve Shooter takes 0.8 seconds.
 
* The Degreaser deploys 60% faster and holsters 30% faster, deploying in 0.2 seconds and holstering in 0.35 seconds.
 
* The [[Axtinguisher]] deploys 75% slower, deploying in 0.875 seconds.
 
** Switching from the Degreaser to the Reserve Shooter takes 0.25 seconds.
 
** Switching from the Reserve Shooter to the Degreaser takes 0.2 seconds.
 
** Switching from the Degreaser to the Axtinguisher takes 0.725 seconds.
 
* The [[Gloves of Running Urgently]] holster 50% slower, holstering in 0.75 seconds.
 
* The Fists of Steel holster 100% slower, holstering in 1 second.
 
 
Due to odd quirks of the item system, some weapons display in different slots:
 
 
* The Spy's secondary slot is displayed where the primary slot for the other classes appear.
 
* [[Sapper|The Sapper]] appears where the secondary slot for the other classes appear for purposes of weapon switching.
 
* The Spy's PDA2 slot is displayed as PDA.
 
 
These quirks do not affect gameplay but have a bearing on [[crafting]] blueprints.
 
 
* ''Note'':  '''N/D''': No Damage. - '''N/A''': Not Applicable. - '''HP''': Health. - '''sec.''': Seconds. - '''N/R''': No Range. - '''∞''': Unlimited.
 
 
Due to an item schema exploit, the [[Deflector]] was available as a Weapon, which was later fixed by [[Valve]]. -->
 
 
== Weapon availability ==
