R8 Revolver | Reboot (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Reboot covers the R8 in silver, dark grey and red, laid out like the casing of a machine. In Battle-Scarred much of the paint on the protruding parts is worn away, leaving bare metal and patchy red details. The overall colour scheme is still readable, which makes this the cheapest way into the skin.

Item type: pistol. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The barrel and the upper frame are split into silver and dark grey angular panels, with a black accessory rail on top and red lines and small red lettering along the side. The cylinder is dark with red highlights and a round emblem sits on the frame next to it.

Large areas of paint are gone from the muzzle, barrel edges, cylinder, hammer and the back of the grip. Red lines and markings survive only in fragments, and the silver panels look scraped. The centre of the flat panels keeps the most colour. In game the revolver looks heavily used, with the colour scheme visible only in general terms.

Which stickers suit it

Red, black, white and silver stickers match the finish best and echo its red accents. Placing them on the silver barrel panels keeps the contrast, while dark stickers blend into the frame for a quieter craft.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the cleaner boundary look noticeably better.
• Inspect the muzzle, barrel panel edges and cylinder, as these lose paint first.
• Look at whether the small red lettering and lines are intact on worn copies.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, and note whether the copy is StatTrak™ or Souvenir.
