SCAR-20 | Palm (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This is the Palm finish with the same sand-and-olive leaf camouflage, at a grade that costs less than Factory New while looking much the same. Any wear is limited to tiny specks on the sharpest edges, which the busy leaf pattern hides well.

Item type: sniper rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Industrial Grade is the second tier from the bottom: common skins from drops and collections.

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

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

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The receiver, handguard rail, magazine, grip and folding stock are painted in a pale sand colour with olive-tan and brown palm-leaf silhouettes and a fine mesh texture sprayed on top. The scope body carries the same camouflage, while the barrel, muzzle brake, screws, trigger and small fittings stay black.

Small specks of wear may appear on the rail teeth and the sharpest receiver edges. The camouflage on the magazine, stock and scope remains whole. At normal viewing distance it is hard to tell apart from Factory New. Flat panels look clean.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the grade, especially in Battle-Scarred, which covers a wide range.
• Look at the rail teeth, magazine corners and scope rings, as these lose paint first.
• Souvenir versions exist and come with their own stickers, so check which version you are buying.
• On regular copies check any applied stickers and name tag, since they change the overall look.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-clean look without paying for Factory New.
• Crafters who accept tiny edge specks hidden by the pattern.
• Conclusion: practically the same look at a gentler cost.
