While skins in PUBG don’t help you get the chicken dinner, you will at least look dope tryin’ it. Discover 15 stunning weapon skins where art meets firepower. 

15. Target Practice Pan 

The frying pan skin “Target Practice” has been introduced in PC 1.0 Update #11, in April 2018. You were able to buy it for 5,000 BP in a very short period of time, making it a limited edition. Basically, you tag yourself as a living target on the battleground, so make sure to handle the heat. The pan still saves your ass, though! 

How To Get the Target Practice Skin

• It’s available on the Steam Community Market for less than $1. 

Interestingly, on Xbox One, you can’t obtain the skin if you missed out on the Target Practice Skin back in the day. This means that whenever you see a player with that skin on his butt, he sure is one of the very early PUBG gamers and, thus, a veteran!

14. Gunsmith Cobalt P1911

Cobalt blue, a pigment derived from the element cobalt, is widely used in ceramics, pottery, glassmaking and other artful endeavors. However, you might also want to paint your favorite weapon cobalt blue. This is what it looks like. The darker blue represents a sense of authority, so who’s in charge? Well, anyone with a 10 cent budget. It still looks cool, though

How to get the Gunsmith Cobalt 1911:

• Available on the Steam Community Market for less than 10 cents. 
• Can be found in the Venetian Crate. 

13. Glory AKM

For glory. This skin was also available for a limited time in late 2018. Its decency is compelling; if you look closer, you will see that the white wings on the dark cloak of the AK resemble an eagle and a chicken at the same time. Artistically brilliant. No guts, no glory. 

How to get the Glory AKM skin: 

• Buy it on the Steam Community Market for around $14. 

12. Jungle Digital AWM

Let it be the information overload, the constant connectivity, or general privacy and security concerns, the digital jungle surely is putting a strain on humanity. Everything is going really fast. Luckily, we ain’t going nowhere while playing PUBG, so you might as well go for the Jungle Digital AWM, which does come across like an 8-bit version of such.

How to get the Jungle Digital AWM:

• Can be found in the Raider Crate.
• Also available in the Steam Community Market for <$1.

11. Toxic S1897

The old philosophical question: Who is guilty of killing with a shotgun? The weapon itself, or the gunner? The toxic edition of the S1897 gives the ultimate hint. Can shotguns be toxic? Normally not. So it leaves us with the person using it. So yes, people can be toxic. This behavior occurs in PUBG as well, and to avoid it, it is simple: just turn the voiceover off.   

How to get the S1897 skin: 

• This skin can be obtained from the Venetian Crate. 
• You also get it in the Steam Community Market for <$1.

10. Glory UMP45

Again, no guts, no glory. Keep pushing. This weapon skin serves as a reminder not to be afraid of what’s to come on the battleground. Go for the chicken, and you will eventually be successful. It is much cheaper than the AKM Glory skin but has the same tremendous artwork.

How to get the Glory UMP45 skin: 

• Steam Community Market: <$1.

9. PCS2 Fierce Conflict G36C

The PUBG Continental Series 2 was an esports tournament in 2020. It was only-online due to the COVID-19 pandemic and was divided into four different regions. The PCS2 Fierce Conflict G36C skin is one of six unique and great-looking weapon skins dedicated to that tournament. 

How to get the PCS2 Fierce Conflict G36C skin:

• Only available in the Steam Community Market for around $4.

8. Silver Plate DP28

Throughout history, silver has been associated with wealth, power, and status. Many traditional weapons, such as swords and daggers, featured silver as a symbol of the owner's prestige. Why would it be different with light machine guns? 

If you are looking for an elegant and timeless appearance, silver is your element!  

How to get the Silver DP28 weapon skin: 

• Can be found in the Raider Crate. 
• As usual, you also find it in the Steam Community Market for <$1.

7. Gold Plate S686

If you really want to show off, gold would be the ultimate choice. With their aesthetic appeal, historical significance, and high visibility, golden weapons do leave a lasting impression. The Gold Plate S686 skin is the rarest of all Gold Plate weapon skins and, of course, the most expensive one. 

How to get the Gold Plate S686: 

• Find it on the Steam Community Market for around $15.

6. PCS3 Blue Bullion SLR

This weapon skin is part of a series dedicated to PCS3, the third PUBG Continental Series, which also took place in 2020. It was very similar to the PCS2 tournament and online-only as well. It is the rarest and most expensive PCS3 item on the Steam Community Market today. 

How to get the PCS3 Blue Bullion SLR skin: 

• Steam Community Market: around $45.

5. Venetian Mini-14

Either you love it or hate it. While it comes across like a Picasso painting smacked on a rifle, you surely need to be appreciative of the arts and culture to use this skin in-game. Well, who knows? Maybe it works like a stun grenade, bereaving the opponent’s eyesight. However, the skin is in demand.

How to get the Venetian Mini 14: 

• Can be obtained from the Venetian Crate. 
• Available on the Steam Community Market for around $25.

4. Shark Bite Kar98 

This shark-mouth nose art stems from fighter planes in World War II. It was painted on the fuselage of the planes, designed to make the aircraft look more aggressive and intimidating. One of the most famous examples of shark-mouth markings is the American Curtiss P-40 Warhawk. In PUBG, the skin is very rare and does look quite awesome. 

How to get the Sharkbite Kar98: 

• Available on the Steam Community Market for around $15.
• Can be obtained from the Equinox Crate (0.16% chance). 

3. Battlestat Industrial Security AKM

Another super rare crate item with a chance of 0.16% of finding it in the East Erangel Police Crate. This skin belongs to the popular Battlestat- skins, which feature a little display on the side of the weapon. This is an all-time kill counter for that particular weapon. While you can buy certain Battlestat weapons for BP, others are harder to get. The AKM version looks super dope, but it’s unfortunately hard to get your hands on. 

How to get the Battlestat Industrial Security AKM:

• Spend $80-90 on the Steam Community Market.
• Get very lucky with the East Erangel Police Crate. 

2. PCS1 QBZ

The PCS1 was the first tournament of its kind. The event was created in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected the global esports landscape. The QBZ skin is one of several skins dedicated to that event. Its golden and shiny appearance does look intriguing, and the skin is quite cheap.

How to get the PCS1 QBZ:

• Find it on the Steam Community Market for <$2. 

1. Pan of Judgement 

The Pan of Judgement is not only a collectible item but also a symbol of the PUBG esports scene and the game's competitive spirit. It was given exclusively to fans who joined in person at the PUBG Global Invitational event in Berlin, Germany, on July 25th. If you are a fan of PUBG, you are automatically a fan of the pan. Any pan really. And chicken dinners. What a great combination! 

How to get the Pan of Judgement:

• Steam Community Market: $55.

Well, that’s it! Of course, there are many other great skins out there, but this is just a glimpse of 15 great artworks that are available right now and are not too expensive.
