MP9 | Spy Prototype (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

The recognisable part of Spy Prototype is the contrast between dark hardware and the pale panels with schematic lines. In Field-Tested the panels pick up visible scratches and the edges start to lose paint, giving the gun a used prototype feel. From normal distance the colour scheme still reads clearly.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

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

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The receiver and side panels are painted in a pale blue-grey satin with thin darker blue lines, small markings and a tiny red detail near the ejection area, giving a schematic look. The ribbed handguard, barrel shroud, muzzle and pistol grip stay in dark grey polymer, framing the light panels.

Scratches spread over the satin panels and paint begins to chip on the receiver edges, the magazine base and the stock plate. Some fine lines look interrupted where the scratches cross them. In game the pale-and-dark contrast still reads well. The centre of the side panels usually keeps most of the pattern.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of MP9 | Spy Prototype is 0–1; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (23% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Souvenir version

There is also a the Souvenir version with tournament stickers.

Which stickers suit it

Blue, white, silver and black stickers match the schematic palette, and holo or foil in cool tones fits the technical look. A single red accent can echo the small red detail on the receiver. The pale side panels are the best spot for placement, where stickers stand out against the satin.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within its wear, since the pale panels show scratches clearly and a low float in a grade looks noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the magazine base, the top rail and the stock plate, as these lose paint first.
• Look at whether the thin lines and small markings on the receiver are still readable.
• On souvenir copies, check which stickers are applied and how worn they are.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who want the colour scheme for everyday play.
• Buyers who like a used prototype feel.
• A practical middle option.
