FAMAS | Byproduct (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Byproduct covers the FAMAS in a gold burst over a muted khaki tone, giving the rifle a dusty, earthy look. In Field-Tested the edges of the carry handle and magazine show chipped paint, which suits the rough character of the finish. The overall pattern still reads well in game.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

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

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The carry handle, upper receiver, rear of the stock and the magazine are painted dark olive with dense gold-yellow streaks that radiate like a burst. The lower body, pistol grip and trigger guard stay in plain grey-beige polymer, framing the painted parts.

Chips become noticeable along the carry handle, magazine edges and stock corners. The gold pattern starts to look patchy where the paint is lifted. Flat areas of the receiver and stock still carry clear streaks. In game the wear reads as light weathering.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of FAMAS | Byproduct is 0–0.55; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (42% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the top of a grade show more chipping on the carry handle.
• Look at the magazine and stock corners, as these parts lose paint first.
• The burst pattern is uniform, so pattern placement matters little for this skin.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, as they change how the item reads.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who like the dusty, weathered character the chipping adds.
• Budget buyers looking for a coloured FAMAS for everyday play.
• Conclusion: a practical grade where wear fits the finish.
