Although most players choose to opt for the powerful auto sniper or simply stick to their traditional assault rifles in later rounds of the match, Negev still remains a popular choice. While this gun is traditionally a high-risk-high-reward weapon due to its risky price and a high spread of bullets, it’s still a good choice late-game and can be used to clear entire rooms quickly or to fire at middle distances effectively.
The Negev machine gun is a difficult-to-control weapon, requiring aim practice from any player who wants to use it. Still, in trained hands, Negev is a powerful force to be reckoned with.
Since it’s not the most popular gun in the game, many of the Negev skins available in the game are relatively cheap, while at the same time providing you with impressive looks. If you want to expand your Counter Strike: Global Offensive inventory with some Negev skins, you’re in luck. Here is our guide to the best Negev skins currently available in the game.

Negev Power Loader
This peculiar skin is a great choice for anyone, who enjoys the industrial look for their guns in the game. The power loader will make your gun look like a huge and bulky power tool, straight out of a construction site. While bringing a power tool to combat might sound like a strange choice, many players enjoy the out-of-place aesthetic, and if anything, it might look funny among other weapons in the match.

Negev Bratatat
If you enjoy a more cartoonish or comic book aesthetic, the Negev Bratatat is a great choice for you. Referencing the fast fire-rate of the Negev machine gun, this skin will definitely make the enemy team turn their heads. There is no way to better show that you like fast-firing guns in the game, and the best part is that for all its impressive looks, Bratatat is one of the cheapest Negev skins currently available in the game. As a matter of fact, you can easily land Minimal Wear versions on the marketplace for less than $1.

Negev Lionfish
This Negev skin is a great choice for fans of all things nautical. As the title suggests, this weapon skin gives your Negev machine gun a paint coat resembling that of a lionfish. Negev Lionfish is one of the skins that give your gun a complete visual overhaul, and will definitely turn some heads in a match with its bright colors. Added to the game in the Clutch collection, this skin doesn’t cost a lot of money and provides you with an awesome look for your heavy machine gun.

Negev dev_texture
Another choice for the fans of non-standard Negev looks, the dev_texture looks more or less as its name suggests. Introduced in the Snakebite collection, this weapon skin will make your weapon look like you’re missing textures. Instead, the classic Negev paint job is replaced with orange and a classic gray mesh, which looks like you’re missing a texture in the game. Doesn’t sound too meta? You can get this Negev skin super cheap, so if you like to surprise other players, this skin is for you.

Negev Nuclear Waste
This Negev skin introduced as a part of the Cache collection has a simple, but interesting look to it. While from a distance it might look like it’s just a yellow skin with some black details, upon closer inspection you can see that the gun is actually covered with tiny symbols of nuclear danger. If you really want to look deadly this might be over the top (since the gun is literally covered with warning signs all over), this Negev skin provides a great look for a very cheap price.

Negev Mjollnir
Finishing off this list is the most legendary skin for the Negev machine gun. The Norse collection introduced a number of items to the game themed around Viking mythology, and the Negev Mjollnir skin references the legendary hammer of the thunder god. The skin itself is equally legendary, and the price reflects that. Negev Mjollnir is the most expensive skin for this machine gun, costing $1300 and above. If you’re a fan of the Negev, there is no better way to show your dedication to this classic machine gun.
