Souvenir Galil AR | Connexion (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

This is the heavily used version of Galil AR | Connexion, a white, red and orange finish marked with Phoenix faction logos. In Battle-Scarred large patches of paint are gone from the front end and edges, and bare metal shows through the orange and white areas. It is the cheapest way to carry the design, and the battered look fits the faction theme.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. 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.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The front end carries the brightest colours: the muzzle device and front sight are painted orange-red, and the handguard is wrapped in ribbed orange-red rings over a red and white base. The receiver is dark grey with red and white areas and sprayed Phoenix markings along the side, with a red section near the charging handle.

Large areas of orange-red paint are gone from the handguard, muzzle and front sight, leaving mostly bare metal at the front. The white base is heavily stained and broken up, and the receiver, magazine edges and stock show deep wear. The Phoenix markings survive only in fragments. In game the rifle looks battered and darker overall, with patches of red and orange showing through.

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

Red, orange and white stickers continue the finish's palette, while black or dark grey ones blend with the receiver and magazine. Placements along the grey receiver side work best, as they do not cover the orange handguard rings.

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since a low float keeps the orange handguard rings noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the muzzle, front sight and handguard ridges, as these parts lose paint first.
• Look at whether the Phoenix markings on the receiver are still legible on worn copies.
• Check any applied stickers and name tag, and whether the StatTrak™ version suits you.

Who the Battle-Scarred quality suits

• Players who want the lowest-cost entry to this design.
• Fans of heavily battered finishes that match the faction theme.
• The budget choice for those who do not mind bare metal.
