AWP | Duality (Factory New)

Skin overview

AWP | Duality is a Classified sniper rifle finish with a snake on each side of the body, one red and one gold. In Factory New the red scales and gold accents stay crisp against the dark metal, and the contrast between the two halves of the design is at its clearest. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the artwork exactly as painted.

Item type: sniper rifle. 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.

Appearance in Factory New

The receiver and stock carry the main artwork: deep red snake scales with pale gold and cream patches, a red serpent on one side and a gold one on the other. The long barrel, muzzle brake, scope and bipod stay in dark, slightly weathered metal, which frames the coloured body. The grip area and the rear of the stock continue the red scale pattern down to the butt. On worn copies the paint goes first on the edges of the stock, the top of the receiver and the area around the bolt, then spreads into the flat painted surfaces.

The red scales, gold patches and snake outlines are fully intact across the receiver and stock. Edges of the stock and the bolt area show no paint loss. In game the rifle looks sharp and saturated at any distance. The dark barrel and scope contrast cleanly with the coloured body.

Which stickers suit it

Red, gold and black stickers match the snake artwork and the dark metal of the barrel. Placing them along the receiver keeps them next to the coloured part of the rifle, while holo or foil gold accents echo the gold serpent.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since a low float in Field-Tested looks noticeably cleaner than a high one.
• Inspect the edges of the stock and the area around the bolt, as these lose paint first.
• Look at both sides of the rifle, because the red and the gold snake are on different sides.
• Note any applied stickers or a name tag and whether they suit you, as they cannot be removed without scraping stickers away.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the snake artwork without any marks.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for gold and red combinations.
• The cleanest look for those who inspect their rifle often.
