G3SG1 | Orange Kimono (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

In Battle-Scarred, Orange Kimono becomes a rough, used-looking G3SG1: the orange stock and grip are heavily chipped and the dark receiver pattern is largely faded. The contrast between dark metal and orange remains, but in a patchy form. It suits players who prefer a worn, utilitarian look.

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

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, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The receiver and handguard are dark graphite grey, covered with a subtle darker geometric lattice that is visible only up close. The barrel, flash hider and magazine stay plain dark metal, while the scope tube carries orange geometric lines over a black base.

The orange stock and grip are heavily chipped, with large dark patches across the surface. The receiver lattice is mostly gone and the scope lines survive only in fragments. In game the rifle looks rough and patchy, with orange still visible in the larger areas. The plain dark parts change least, since there is little pattern there to lose.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the edges of the orange stock and the pistol grip, since that is where chips show first.
• Look at where the float sits within its wear range, because a low float in a grade keeps the orange noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the scope lines and the receiver lattice on worn copies to see how much of the pattern is left.
• Note any applied stickers or name tag and whether they fit the orange and black scheme.
