Whichever copy of CS the players have (HL:CS or CS:CZ), they can extract the models for their own personal use. It's only uploading the CZ models and letting others downloading them is illegal beacuse they're copyrighted material...
Guess this has been said hundred of times, I suppose. :)
Man...More code? LOL! :D

Actually, ignore the second bit. It's written in embedded native C++, so it's impossible to ilasm it back into a DLL or something you can actually use.

If you're feeling really ambitious, you could use some of the published source code for GCFScape, some of which is here:
http://www.wunderboy.org/3d_games/utils/gcfformat.php
or disassemble the GCFScape.exe using ildasm and write a program which can auto-extract the CS models from a user's counter-strike.gcf. Although, not sure about how strictly legal the second option would be...

You might be able to extract the weapons from the .gcf files. Look at the following link:
