AUG | Lil' Pig (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The red-and-gold scheme of AUG | Lil' Pig stays intact in Minimal Wear, with the pig, the stars and the golden ornament on the receiver fully readable. Any marks are small and sit on edges you rarely notice from the first-person view. It gives nearly the same look as the cleanest grade at a lower step.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

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

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The receiver and upper body are painted red with darker red stripes on top, and a gold ornamental script runs along the side near the magazine well. The rear of the stock is dark grey with a red pig near the butt, framed by gold details.

Tiny marks may appear on the muzzle brake and the edges of the magazine. The red body, the gold script and the stars on the grip remain clean. The pig on the stock is unaffected. At normal distance it is hard to tell from Factory New.

Which stickers suit it

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the grade, since the gold accents on the muzzle and magazine show wear earliest.
• Look at the pig on the stock and the gold script on the side, as these define the look of the skin.
• Inspect any applied stickers and their positions, because they sit over the red body and can clash with the gold details.
• Note a name tag if present and whether it fits the theme of the rifle.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-perfect look without paying for the top grade.
• Crafters who are fine with tiny marks on the edges.
• Conclusion: almost the same view in hand, with some savings.
