Souvenir FAMAS | Byproduct (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

FAMAS | Byproduct is a gold-on-olive burst finish whose float range stops earlier than usual, so even the most worn grade is not fully stripped. Battle-Scarred copies show heavy chipping on edges and raised parts while the main panels keep much of the pattern. It is the most weathered take on the finish.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

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

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

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The carry handle, upper receiver, rear of the stock and the magazine are painted dark olive with dense gold-yellow streaks that radiate like a burst. The lower body, pistol grip and trigger guard stay in plain grey-beige polymer, framing the painted parts.

Heavy chipping covers the carry handle, magazine and stock corners, with wide grey patches. Because the float range ends early, the main panels still hold much of the olive and gold. In game the finish reads as worn but recognisable. Only the centre of flat surfaces looks relatively clean.

Battle-Scarred quality — float range 0.45–0.55

The float of Souvenir FAMAS | Byproduct ranges from 0 to 0.55; the Battle-Scarred quality covers 0.45–0.55 — 18% of this skin’s scale. Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Where the skin comes from: collection and case

Souvenir FAMAS | Byproduct belongs to The Harlequin Collection, which holds 19 skins. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

Price by quality

Among 6 skins of the FAMAS in the Consumer Grade grade and this quality, this skin is the dearest.

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 olive stickers blend well with the streaked finish. Holo or gold stickers on the grey lower body stand out cleanly without fighting the pattern.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the top of a grade show more chipping on the carry handle.
• Look at the magazine and stock corners, as these parts lose paint first.
• The burst pattern is uniform, so pattern placement matters little for this skin.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, as they change how the item reads.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Budget players who want the cheapest entry into this skin.
• Buyers who like heavy wear but still want the pattern visible.
• Conclusion: the roughest version, still recognisable thanks to the shortened float range.
