R8 Revolver | Bone Mask (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Battle-Scarred is the most worn version of this spray-painted revolver, and large areas of the beige coat are gone. What remains is a patchy mix of bone-coloured paint, dark stencil marks and bare metal, mostly holding on the grip and the frame sides. It fits players who want a weathered, field-used look at the lowest grade.

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

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The whole revolver is sprayed in a pale bone and olive tone, with dark grey-brown lines forming an irregular web where the masking tape was laid. On the barrel and the shroud under it the lines run in long streaks, while the cylinder and frame show darker patches around the dark metal of the chambers, hammer and top rail.

Battle-Scarred shows heavy paint loss on all raised parts and along most edges of the barrel, cylinder and frame. The grip is scratched through in many places, with the light coat surviving in broken patches. In game the revolver reads as a dark, weathered pistol with traces of the bone pattern, mainly on the frame sides.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since copies close to the cleaner end keep more paint on the muzzle and rail.
• Look at the muzzle, the top rail and the front of the cylinder in the inspect view, as these lose paint first.
• On souvenir copies, check which stickers are applied and how worn they are.
• See whether a name tag or stickers are already applied and whether they suit your taste.
