Glock-18 | Royal Legion (Factory New)

Skin overview

Glock-18 | Royal Legion pairs a dark slide covered in ornate engraved scrollwork with a frame painted in deep orange-red. In Factory New the engraving is crisp, the orange is even from muzzle to magazine and the contrast between the two halves is at its sharpest. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the gunsmith detail exactly as it was designed.

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.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The slide is dark gunmetal covered with dense engraved scrollwork and floral ornament, while the rear serrations stay plain and the muzzle end is left in bright bare metal. The frame is painted a deep orange-red, with small engraved lettering along the dust cover and side. The grip carries stippled, engraved texture panels in the same colour, and the trigger and magazine base remain dark grey. On worn copies the orange paint goes first on the frame edges, the trigger guard, the front strap of the grip and around the magazine well, and the slide picks up scratches along its top and front edges.

The orange-red paint covers the frame evenly, including the edges of the trigger guard and the grip. The slide engraving is sharp and the bare-metal muzzle is clean. In game the pistol reads as a clean two-tone piece with fully visible ornament. Nothing on the weapon shows wear.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the grade, since the frame edges and trigger guard show chipping sooner on higher values.
• Look at the front strap of the grip and the area around the magazine well, the first places where the orange wears off.
• Inspect the top and front edges of the slide for scratches that blur the engraving.
• Make sure any applied stickers or name tag suit the orange and gunmetal scheme.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the engraving and the orange paint in perfect condition.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for a matching gold or red craft.
• The choice for those who value the full gunsmith detail.
