MAC-10 | Candy Apple (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

The skin is built around a single red colour on the receiver, contrasted with the gunmetal lower half and wire stock. In Field-Tested, the most worn grade available for this finish, scuffs start to show on the edges of the red housing, giving it a used, spray-painted feel. The overall red-and-black silhouette stays easy to recognise.

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.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New and Minimal Wear.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The upper receiver is painted solid red from the muzzle end to the rear, including the ribbed top cover, the side cut-outs and the cocking area. The barrel stub stays black, while the grip, magazine and trigger guard are a dark gunmetal grey.

Scuffs spread along the front and rear edges of the receiver and across the ribbed top cover, exposing lighter spots under the red. The corners around the side cut-outs show the most wear. Because the float range stops early, the large flat sides of the red housing still look mostly intact. In game the red reads clearly, with a slightly rough, used edge.

The float of MAC-10 | Candy Apple ranges from 0 to 0.3; the Field-Tested quality covers 0.15–0.3 — 50% of this skin’s scale. Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since a low Field-Tested copy can look close to Minimal Wear.
• Inspect the front edges and top ribs of the receiver, as these lose paint first.
• Pattern does not matter here because the finish is a solid colour.
• Look at applied stickers and name tags, as they change the plain look noticeably.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Budget players who want a bright red MAC-10 for everyday matches.
• Those who like a slightly used, spray-painted feel on the edges.
• Conclusion: an inexpensive entry into the finish that still keeps the red clearly visible.
