Souvenir Five-SeveN | Hot Shot (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Hot Shot keeps its character through the colour split between the olive slide and the cream grip, with green picking out the controls. In Field-Tested the light frame starts to show scuffs and the slide edges lose some paint. The overall scheme still reads clearly at normal distance.

Item type: pistol. 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.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The slide is painted a flat dark olive, with the serrations at the rear left in the same tone. The frame, trigger guard and stippled grip are a pale cream, close to bone white.

Scuffs appear along the slide edges and around the muzzle, and the cream frame shows light grime. The green on the sights and trigger begins to thin at the tips. In game the scheme still reads clearly, with wear noticeable mainly up close. The flat sides of the slide and the centre of the grip stay mostly intact.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of Souvenir Five-SeveN | Hot Shot is 0–1; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (23% 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

Stickers in acid green, black or olive tones match the accents and the slide. Placements on the cream frame stand out most, while dark stickers on the slide blend in for a quieter look.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the pale frame shows grime more readily than darker finishes.
• Look at the slide edges, muzzle and sights first, as these lose paint before the rest of the pistol.
• Inspect the cream grip and trigger guard for dirt, which is easy to miss in small previews.
• Note any stickers or name tag, since they can change how well the copy matches your plans.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who want the colour scheme and do not mind light scuffs.
• Buyers looking for an everyday CT pistol skin.
• In short: a practical middle option.
