Souvenir Glock-18 | Glockingbird (Factory New)

Skin overview

Glock-18 | Glockingbird is a Restricted pistol finish with a silver mockingbird and grey floral ornament over a khaki base, cut by green panels and a bright yellow sweeping stripe. In Factory New every element stays sharp: the fine checker squares, the halftone dots on the grip and the thin outlines of the bird read cleanly. This is the grade for buyers who want the full graphic layout exactly as designed.

Item type: pistol. 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.

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 slide is khaki with a grey floral ornament, a yellow checker block near the muzzle and green panels with a checker strip at the rear, where the silver mockingbird sits over the green. A wide yellow stripe curves from the front of the slide across the frame and down into the grip, which is filled with a yellow halftone dot pattern.

The paint is complete on every part, including the muzzle face and slide corners. The checker blocks, halftone dots and the outline of the mockingbird stay crisp. In game the pistol shows clean, saturated yellow and green against the khaki. Low floats within this grade look the same as the inspect image.

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 yellow, green, gold or muted khaki tones blend with the artwork without fighting the ornament. The flat khaki area of the slide between the yellow stripe and the green panel is a natural spot, while covering the mockingbird at the rear hides the key motif.

What to check before buying

• Look at the float position within the grade, since the muzzle and slide corners show the difference first.
• Inspect the rear of the slide to see how intact the silver mockingbird is on worn copies.
• Check the bottom of the grip and the trigger guard, which lose paint early on this finish.
• If you consider a Souvenir copy, make sure its preset stickers suit the yellow and green artwork.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the fine checker and halftone details fully intact.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for colour-matched combinations.
• The choice for buyers who want the design exactly as intended.
