#10 Tempered AK47

$12.10

First on our list is the Tempered AK47; the AK is almost definitely inspired by the Fade line of skins from CS, featuring the classic tempered look with colors varying across the spectrum from orange to pink to purple. You can almost never go wrong with this classic of a Rust skin.

#9 Blackout AR

$9.11

In the number nine spot, we have the classic Blackout AR. Arguably the most famous Rust collection, the Blackout collection is notorious for its sleek and shiny black look and for being one of the most popular skin collections in all of Rust. So, it is without question that the Blackout AR makes this list.

#8 Retrowave AR

$3.02

Next up with a skin taking Rust back to the 80’s is the Retrowave AR. This stockless AK with a bright purple background brings the classic neon wave look of the 80s into Rust. Its unique bright colors and themes are what put it at number 8 on this list.

#7 No Mercy AK47

$5.01

Another Rust classic, the No Mercy AK47, is the perfect mix of resources between the Blackout and Whiteout collections. A bit of white mixed with black and a touch of silver make for one of the best-looking AKs on this list.

#6 MK-ULTRA

$0.94

One of the newer AK skins introduced into Rust, MK-ULTRA is named after the US government experiment it did on civilians. The skin has a trippy look, with bright colors and imagery washing over the skin. Its beautiful colors and unique art are what place it sixth on the list.

#5 Chameleon AR

$1.48

Possibly the most unique collection in Rust, the Chameleon skin collection features a holo-like effect, shifting the weapons colors from green to purple. When this pattern is placed on the AR, it creates a magnificent look over it as its vibrant purple and green colors shine across the screen.

#4 Redemption AR

$1.97

Number four on our list of Rust skins we have the Redemption AR, this AR skin is special in the fact that the artist uses cutouts changing the physical model of the AR. That, paired with its bright pink and dark black contrasting colors, makes a beautiful, sleek, and metallic skin.

#3 Playmaker AK47

$8.02

Take Rust back to the arcade with the Playmaker AK47. This stockless version of the classic AR features a black, white, and yellow design with buttons, a d-pad, and a small joystick to represent a classic arcade controller. The skin uses clever play-on-words, almost implying that whoever is using the skin is about to make a play.

#2 Zebra AR

$1.47

The Zebra AR takes the number two spot on our list for not only its special design but also its incredibly cheap price making it an amazing budget alternative when compared with some of the other skins on this list. The Zebra AR uses zebra print fur like you would see on boots and purple highlights on parts of the gun to add an extra shine. The beautiful aspects of this gun, combined with its cheap price, is what gets it to number two on this list.

#1 Alien Red

$110.37

By far, the best AK skin in all of Rust is no other than the Alien Red. The Alien Red is quite possibly the most widely recognized skin for the AK in all of Rust. Originally known for being one of the rarest glow-sight skins in all of Rust, the black and red alien-themed skin has built a notorious reputation in Rust for being owned by some of the most serious of players.
