MAC-10 | Acid Hex (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Acid Hex in Battle-Scarred keeps its lime base but shows heavy scraping on every protruding part of the MAC-10. Because this skin's float range is capped below the usual maximum, even the most worn copies keep a fair share of the hex pattern on the flat panels. The result is a rough, weathered take on the same green design.

Item type: smg. 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.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The whole receiver is coated in a hydrographic hex pattern: irregular lime and yellow-green cells separated by darker green lines, with the size and shading of the hexagons shifting from panel to panel. The long magazine and the grip carry the same pattern, and the yellow tone is strongest on the front of the grip.

Heavy wear covers the receiver edges, the whole lower part of the magazine and much of the grip, with large dark areas breaking the pattern. The yellow-gold stock and trigger guard are scraped too. Thanks to the capped float range, the flat panels still keep recognisable green hexagons. In game it reads as a dark-edged, weathered green SMG.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the cleaner end show less edge wear on the receiver and magazine.
• Inspect the magazine corners and base plate, as they lose paint first and are very visible in the first-person view.
• Souvenir versions exist, so check whether a copy carries souvenir stickers and whether they suit you.
• Look at any applied stickers and name tag, because they affect how the green finish looks as a whole.

Who the Battle-Scarred quality suits

• Players who prefer a rough, weathered style on a cheap SMG.
• Buyers who want the lowest-cost copy, knowing the capped range still leaves visible pattern.
• Conclusion: the most budget-friendly way to own Acid Hex with plenty of character.
