MP9 | Pine (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Pine turns the MP9 into a utilitarian green tool with no ornament beyond the shape of the gun itself. In Field-Tested the solid coat starts to show chipped edges and rubbed spots, which break up the flat colour slightly. Many players find this lived-in look suits a plain military green.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

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

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

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The receiver, top rail, trigger guard, front vertical grip and pistol grip are all painted the same solid olive-pine green with a soft satin sheen. The folding stock is in a slightly darker green, while the magazine, muzzle and small controls stay dark grey and black.

Chips are now clear on the rail, receiver edges, muzzle end and the raised ribs of both grips. Dark base shows through in small spots along these edges. In game the gun still reads as green, with a slightly worn outline. The flat sides of the receiver and most of the stock keep their paint.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since on a solid colour the amount of chipping is the only visible difference.
• Look at the rail teeth, receiver edges and grip ribs in the inspect view, as these lose paint first.
• The finish has no pattern, so there is no reason to pay extra for a particular seed.
• Check for applied stickers or a name tag, which change the look of such a plain skin noticeably.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who like a slightly used military look on a plain green gun.
• Budget buyers who want the skin to still read clearly as green in game.
• Conclusion: a practical everyday choice with a lived-in feel.
