Souvenir FAMAS | Byproduct (Factory New)

Skin overview

FAMAS | Byproduct is a Consumer Grade rifle finish with gold streaks bursting across a dark olive base. In Factory New the gold lines stay sharp and continuous, and the burst motif reads clearly on the carry handle and stock. This is the cleanest version of a simple, warm-toned 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: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Factory New

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.

The paint is intact on every painted part, including the top of the carry handle and the magazine edges. The gold streaks keep their full contrast against the olive base. In game the rifle looks crisp and evenly coloured. Nothing on the weapon shows chipping.

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 check before buying

• 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 Factory New

• Collectors who want the gold streaks at full contrast.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for gold or holo stickers.
• Conclusion: the pick for the cleanest look of this finish.
