AUG | Amber Slipstream (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Amber Slipstream lays a smoky grey hydrographic with orange streaks and mesh panels over the AUG, finished with a bright orange magazine. In Battle-Scarred the wear is the heaviest of all grades, with scratched panels and worn edges, but the float range of this skin ends earlier than for many others, so the pattern does not fade away completely. It suits buyers who like a rough, battle-used look on a cheap AUG.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The receiver and stock are covered in a dark grey and muted teal camouflage hydrographic, broken by orange and rust-red streaks around the trigger guard and the rear of the stock. The rear stock carries orange panels with a fine grid texture that stand out as the brightest painted areas.

This is the most worn grade: the stock, grip and trigger guard carry heavy scratches and large worn areas. The orange panels are strongly scuffed and the camouflage is broken up on the raised parts. Because the skin's range stops earlier than the usual maximum, the pattern is damaged but not erased, and the orange accents still show in game.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since copies near the lower end of a grade look noticeably cleaner.
• Look at the orange panels on the rear stock and the edges of the trigger guard, as these show wear first.
• Make sure the stickers and name tag on the offer fit the orange and grey colour scheme.
• Decide whether you want the StatTrak™ or Souvenir version, as both exist for this skin.
