G3SG1 | Arctic Camo (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Arctic Camo gives the G3SG1 a muted winter look built from irregular white, grey and blue-teal shapes. In Field-Tested the camo is still clearly readable, but scuffs start to show on the edges of the handguard and the scope, where dark metal peeks through the light paint. The worn edges suit the field-gear character of the finish.

Item type: sniper rifle. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Industrial Grade is the second tier from the bottom: common skins from drops and collections.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

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

Appearance in Field-Tested

The handguard, upper receiver and scope tube carry the main camo: irregular white, light grey and blue-teal blotches with a few darker grey accents. The barrel, muzzle device, front sight and magazine stay dark gunmetal, which frames the light pattern.

Wear spreads along the handguard edges, the scope rings and the ends of the scope tube, where dark metal starts to show. The stock gains light scuffs on its raised areas. In game the camo remains clearly recognisable and the scratches add a used look. The central part of the receiver keeps most of its pattern.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of G3SG1 | Arctic Camo is 0.06–0.8; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (31% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Origin of the skin

What it costs in each quality

Among 4 skins of the G3SG1 in the Industrial Grade grade and this quality, this skin is the dearest.

Which stickers suit it

White, silver and pale blue stickers blend with the snow camo, while a single dark or holographic sticker on the handguard adds a clean accent. Avoid warm, saturated colours if you want to keep the cold winter mood.

What to check before buying

• Check the float within the grade, since a low float in Field-Tested or Well-Worn keeps noticeably more paint on the handguard and scope.
• Inspect the scope tube and handguard edges, as they lose paint first on this finish.
• Souvenir copies come with pre-applied stickers, so make sure their placement suits you.
• Look at any applied stickers and name tag, because they do not affect the finish but change the overall look.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players looking for a balanced copy where the camo is clear and wear adds character.
• Those who like the field-gear style of camouflage finishes.
• In short: a practical middle option.
