SCAR-20 | Trail Blazer (Factory New)

Skin overview

SCAR-20 | Trail Blazer is a restrained monochrome finish: a deep black body with fine silver inlays and a faint speckled texture. In Factory New the black stays even and the silver lines look crisp along the rail and receiver. It suits players who want a dark, tidy sniper rifle without bright colour.

Item type: sniper rifle. 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.

Appearance in Factory New

The receiver and the long railed handguard are covered in a dark black coat with a subtle speckled texture and thin silver inlays that pick out the rail slots and edges. The barrel and muzzle brake stay black with a slightly metallic sheen, while the scope keeps the same dark tone with a pale lens. The magazine is dark grey with a faint metallic tint, and the pistol grip and skeleton stock are black with small light markings on the stock side. On worn copies the finish first rubs off on the muzzle, the top rail and handguard edges, the magazine base and the corners of the stock, where lighter metal shows through.

The black coat is even across the whole rifle and the silver inlays have sharp edges. There are no visible scuffs on the muzzle, rails or stock. In game the rifle reads as a solid dark shape with a fine silver sheen on the handguard. Everything, including the magazine base and stock corners, looks clean.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since copies near the top of a grade show more scuffs on the muzzle and rail.
• Inspect the handguard edges, magazine base and stock corners, as these lose the black coat first.
• Look at applied stickers and the name tag, because they change the look of such a plain dark finish noticeably.
• Compare the StatTrak™ or Souvenir version if you want a counter or tournament stickers on this rifle.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the cleanest black coat and sharp silver inlays.
• Sticker crafters who need an even dark base for foil or holo stickers.
• The best choice if you want the finish exactly as designed.
