Souvenir AK-47 | Wintergreen (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

Wintergreen pairs a green metallic body with dark brown furniture, a restrained look close to a classic rifle. In Minimal Wear the finish reads almost the same as Factory New, with at most fine marks on edges visible only on close inspection. For many buyers this is the sensible way to get a near-clean copy.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The receiver, top cover, barrel, gas tube, front sight and pistol grip are covered in solid green with a light anodized metallic sheen. The handguard and buttstock are painted dark brown, giving the rifle a two-tone look close to a traditional wood-and-metal AK.

Fine scratches may appear on the muzzle, front sight and sharp edges of the receiver. They are visible only when inspecting the weapon closely. At normal distance in game the rifle reads the same as a Factory New copy. The grip, stock and handguard remain clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Which stickers suit it

Gold, brown, beige and dark green stickers fit the green-and-brown scheme without breaking it. The flat sides of the green receiver above the magazine are the most visible place for a placement. Holographic or bright stickers create a strong contrast against the restrained colours.

What to check before buying

• Since the finish has no pattern, the float value is the main factor in how the rifle looks.
• Inspect the muzzle, front sight and top of the receiver, as these show wear first.
• Check the grip and the edges of the stock on Field-Tested and more worn copies.
• Souvenir copies come with stickers already applied, so make sure they suit you.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-clean look without paying for the top grade.
• Sticker crafters, since small edge marks are hidden in game.
• A balanced option between appearance and cost.
