Community weapons are unique in-game weapons given by Valve to individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the Team Fortress 2 community. Community weapons have green names and a sparkle particle effect attached.

An incomplete list of Community Weapon receipients are available here.

Trivia

• Originally, names for community unlockable weapons were grammatically incorrect, using names like “Community The Kritzkrieg.” Valve has since corrected this.
• Typically, these weapons are level 50 items, though there are some at 100. Like all other in-game items, levels have no effect on gameplay or the weapons.
• In some cases, a contributor was awarded one item, such as a Community Sniper Rifle, but later had it exchanged for another weapon, like a Community Huntsman. Initially, players were given Community weapons based on what their most played class was, but depending on the circumstances it has been possible to specify a weapon instead.
• Community weapons used to be tradable, but Valve released an update preventing this.
• The Community weapons actually had a hidden damage bonus only viewable by using the debug version of the backpack examiner. It was later removed and replaced by the sparkle effect.
