Dual Berettas | Royal Consorts (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This Gunsmith finish pairs two gold-toned Berettas with green dyed pearl grips and ornamental side plates. At Minimal Wear the look is nearly the same as a fresh copy, with at most faint marks on the slide edges that are hard to spot in game. It is a way to get the full engraved look without paying for the cleanest grade.

Item type: pistol. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

Both slides are finished in brass-gold with dense scrollwork engraving along the sides and a dark mottled steel band running across the top. The frames and trigger guards are steel grey, while the grips combine green dyed pearl panels with gold side plates decorated with floral ornament and a gryphon motif.

Light scuffs may appear on the slide edges and muzzle ends, usually visible only on close inspection. The engraving and grip plates stay crisp, and the green panels are unchanged. At normal distance in game it reads the same as Factory New. Cleaner copies in this grade are practically indistinguishable from the top grade.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since a low float keeps the slide engraving noticeably cleaner.
• Look at the slide edges and muzzle ends, which lose their gold first.
• Inspect the green grip panels and side plates for scuffs on worn copies.
• Note any stickers or a name tag and whether they fit the gold and green look.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-new look at a lower cost than the top grade.
• Sticker crafters who accept faint edge marks.
• A sensible balance of appearance and spending.
