Souvenir CZ75-Auto | Syndicate (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

Syndicate pairs a gold triangle mesh with black panels and a blue trigger, so in hand the pistol reads as one solid gold shape. At Minimal Wear the only differences from a pristine copy are a few small marks on the edges, and they are hard to spot in game. You keep the clean gold look at a lower grade.

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

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

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

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The slide and frame are painted gold with a fine grid of interlocking triangles, broken by black sections on the top of the slide and the lower frame, with thin gold trim lines along the slide. The extended magazine is almost entirely gold, carries the same triangle mesh and ends in a dark base plate.

Small scuffs may appear on the front edge of the slide near the muzzle and on the magazine base. The flat gold panels and the triangle grid stay clean. At normal viewing distance it is hard to tell apart from Factory New.

Minimal Wear quality — float range 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir CZ75-Auto | Syndicate is 0–0.7; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (11% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Origin of the skin

Souvenir CZ75-Auto | Syndicate belongs to The 2021 Train Collection, which holds 17 skins. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

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.

Stickers and crafts

Gold, black and holo or foil stickers in gold tones blend into the finish, while blue stickers echo the trigger and highlights. Placements on the slide work best, where the black sections give stickers a calmer background than the busy triangle grid.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since a low float keeps the gold cleaner on the slide edges and magazine.
• Inspect the magazine base and corners, because this long gold part shows wear first in the first-person view.
• Look at the muzzle area and slide edges for chips in the gold before choosing between close offers.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, as they change how the gold surface reads.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want the clean gold look without paying for the top grade.
• Sticker crafters, since the light edge marks are barely visible.
• Conclusion: almost the Factory New look at a more reasonable grade.
