Glock-18 | Nuclear Garden (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Nuclear Garden is recognised by its glowing green slide with dark organic blotches and the grey polymer frame below it. In Field-Tested the colour is still clearly green and toxic in game, while the edges and the top of the slide start to show light scratches. The overall look survives well because the bright base colour hides small damage.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

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

Appearance in Field-Tested

The finish is applied to the slide only: a saturated acid green base covered in darker green and near-black blotches with swirling, organic outlines. Towards the muzzle the green turns lighter and more yellow, giving the front of the slide a glowing look.

Scratches spread along the upper edges of the slide and the front face around the muzzle. The top surface begins to lose some colour in light patches, while the sides keep the pattern clearly. In game the slide still reads as bright green, with wear noticeable mainly in inspect view. The frame and grip remain unchanged.

What to check before buying

• Look at the front edge of the slide and the muzzle area, since this is where colour loss starts.
• Check where the float sits within the wear range, as low floats in each grade keep the top of the slide noticeably cleaner.
• Souvenir copies come with fixed stickers, so decide whether you want them on the slide.
• Check applied stickers and name tags, because they change the look and the resale appeal.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who mainly see the skin in first person, where the green still looks bright.
• Buyers who want the toxic theme without paying for a clean slide.
• Conclusion: the balanced pick for everyday play.
