The price gap is $300: the Glock-18 costs $200 against $500 for the CZ75-Auto. On a full buy with armor and utility (~$1,000-1,400 on top of the gun), that difference decides whether a third teammate can buy a smoke or a flash — weapon choice is a team-economy decision, not just a personal one. Kill rewards differ too: $300 per kill with the Glock-18 versus $100 with the CZ75-Auto — over a 3-kill round that is a $600 swing for your next buy.
