MP9 | Rose Iron (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Rose Iron turns the MP9 into a dark frame wrapped in gold vines, with a red rose and scattered red dots on the receiver. The float range of this skin ends early, so Field-Tested copies sit only at the lightest end of that grade. Wear shows as scuffs along edges and the top of the gun, while the rose and vines remain clear.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Counter-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.

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

Appearance in Field-Tested

The receiver and barrel shroud are finished in a dark gunmetal tone with ribbed texture, covered by looping gold thorny vines and small red dots. A large red rose with gold outlines is painted on the rear of the receiver, near the charging area.

Field-Tested copies show more visible scuffs along the top rail, muzzle and receiver edges, with light marks on the grip ribs. Because the range stops early, wear stays moderate and never reaches heavy damage. The rose remains readable and the gold vines keep most of their shine. In game the worn spots appear as small lighter patches near the top of the gun.
