P250 | Boreal Forest (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

P250 | Boreal Forest is a forest camo hydrographic, here in its roughest form. In Battle-Scarred large areas of the slide and frame are scraped down to bare metal, and the green and brown patches survive mainly on the grip and the lower frame. It suits players who want the camouflage look with heavy, honest wear.

Item type: pistol. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

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 P250 is covered with a forest camouflage hydrographic: large irregular patches of olive, brown, tan and dark green, broken by lighter yellow-green areas. The camo runs across the slide, the frame, the trigger guard and the grip without a separate colour for any part, so the pistol reads as one continuous pattern.

Much of the slide is scraped down to metal, with only fragments of the camo left on its sides. The frame, trigger guard and grip edges carry heavy wear, and the magazine base is mostly bare. In game the pistol looks grey with scattered green and brown remnants. The grip panels keep the most of the original pattern.

Stickers and crafts

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since lower values keep the slide edges and muzzle cleaner.
• Look at the top and front edges of the slide and the muzzle, as these lose paint first.
• Check whether the copy is a Souvenir, because Souvenir versions of this skin exist and differ from regular ones.
• Review any applied stickers and name tag, as they change the look of this plain camo noticeably.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Players who like heavy, honest wear on a camo finish.
• Budget entry into the skin for those who rarely inspect the weapon.
• A rugged look for those who do not mind bare metal.
