Dual Berettas | Anodized Navy (Factory New)

Skin overview

Dual Berettas | Anodized Navy is a pair of pistols finished in a deep navy blue over a chrome base, with the bare metal parts left silver. In Factory New the blue coat is even and glossy across both slides and frames, and the contrast with the chrome barrels and triggers stays sharp. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the candied colour at its cleanest.

Item type: pistol. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Anodized: the colour is in the metal coating itself, so wear shows mostly as dulling rather than a rubbed-off pattern.

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear.

How the skin looks in Factory New

Both slides and frames are coated in a translucent navy blue that shows a metallic sheen from the chrome underneath. The barrels exposed along the top of the slides, the hammers, triggers and trigger guards stay bright silver, which outlines each pistol against the blue. The grip panels are light silver with small screws, framed by blue backstraps and front edges. There is no pattern: the look relies on the solid anodized colour and its contrast with the bare metal. On worn copies the blue thins first on sharp edges of the slides, the muzzle ends and the raised parts of the frame, letting the chrome show through.

In Factory New the navy coat covers the slides and frames without visible breaks. The edges of the slides and the muzzle ends keep their full colour, and the chrome parts are evenly polished. In game the pistols read as clean deep blue with crisp silver details. Copies near the cleanest end of the range show no marks even on close inspection.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the range, since the whole skin spans only the two cleanest grades and copies differ very little.
• Look at the slide edges and muzzle ends in the inspect view, as that is where the blue thins first.
• Find out whether the copy is a Souvenir version, because it comes with stickers already applied.
• Check any stickers and name tag, since they change the look of the plain blue surface more than the wear does.
