Glock-18 | Bunsen Burner (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Glock-18 | Bunsen Burner shows a blue patina slide, a flame design and a grey polymer frame. In Battle-Scarred the patina is heavily worn on the muzzle end and slide edges, giving the gun a rough, weathered look. The blue tone is still identifiable, so the skin keeps its character at the most affordable grade.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Patina: an aged metal surface; wear is part of the design, so the gap between qualities is less visible.

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

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The slide carries a blue patina that shifts from deep teal at the rear to bright cyan near the muzzle. On its side a stylised flame design runs forward, drawn in dark navy outlines with brighter blue tongues inside.

Heavy wear covers the muzzle, all slide edges, the serrations and the area around the ejection port. The flames are significantly broken and the gradient is uneven. In game the gun has a rough, weathered appearance, yet the blue colour still reads. The grey frame shows the least change.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear range, since a low float in a grade keeps the muzzle and slide edges cleaner.
• Look at the muzzle face and the front corners of the slide, as these lose the patina first.
• Make sure the flame outlines on the slide side are intact on Field-Tested and more worn copies.
• Check applied stickers and the name tag, because they change the look of a simple two-tone finish.
