Souvenir AUG | Radiation Hazard (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The red hazard stripes on this AUG are the part that catches the eye, and in Minimal Wear they look almost exactly as on a fresh copy. Any small marks sit on edges that are hard to notice in a match, which makes this grade a practical alternative to Factory New.

Item type: 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.

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The body of the AUG is a dark charcoal grey, while the barrel, scope and top rail stay plain dark metal without paint. Bright red-orange diagonal stripes run across the rear of the stock, the trigger guard and the lower part of the frame, and the foregrip carries irregular red splashes like rough spray marks.

Tiny scuffs may appear on the corners of the foregrip and the lower edge of the stock. The stripes keep their full colour and shape. In game it is practically indistinguishable from Factory New. The magazine, frame and trigger guard still look clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir AUG | Radiation Hazard is 0–0.55; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (15% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

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

Red, black and white stickers match the hazard palette, and yellow warning-style designs suit the theme. Placements on the dark frame above the trigger guard keep the stripes on the stock visible.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since the stripes on the stock edges and grips show the difference first.
• Look at the foregrip and the bottom of the magazine on the inspect screen, as these parts lose paint early.
• A Souvenir version exists, so make sure the listing shows the version you actually want.
• Check any applied stickers and name tag, as they change how the stock and frame look.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a nearly clean look without paying for Factory New.
• Sticker crafts where tiny edge marks will not be noticed.
• A sensible balance of appearance and cost.
