Souvenir M4A1-S | Electrum (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

M4A1-S | Electrum covers the rifle in green marbling with gold and red details, and in Battle-Scarred that finish is heavily rubbed down. Large areas of metal show through on the suppressor, handguard ribs, magazine and stock edges, giving the rifle a used, field-worn look. It is the least expensive way to carry the green colour scheme.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-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.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The suppressor, handguard, receiver, carry handle and stock are painted in a deep green with a marbled, slightly metallic texture. The ribbed handguard catches the light along each rib, while the receiver carries small gold accents on its pins and controls, with red touches as noted in the item description.

Large areas of the suppressor and handguard are worn to metal, and the magazine and carry handle are heavily stripped. The stock and receiver show wide scuffing along edges and raised parts. In game the rifle reads as patchy green and grey rather than glossy green. Only recessed areas keep the marbled paint.

Battle-Scarred wear: float 0.45–1

The float of Souvenir M4A1-S | Electrum ranges from 0 to 1; the Battle-Scarred quality covers 0.45–1 — 55% of this skin’s scale. Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Price by quality

Among 5 skins of the M4A1-S in the Restricted grade and this quality, this skin is the most affordable.

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

Gold and holographic stickers echo the gold accents on the receiver, and dark green or black designs blend into the base colour. Small red elements can pick up the red details without breaking the scheme. Placements along the receiver and the handguard sit well against the solid green.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits inside the wear range, since low and high floats of the same grade can look noticeably different.
• Inspect the suppressor and handguard ribs first, as these parts lose paint before the rest of the rifle.
• Look at the magazine and carry handle edges for bare metal on worn copies.
• See whether stickers or a name tag are applied and whether their colours fit the green finish.

Who the Battle-Scarred quality suits

• Budget entry for players who want the skin at the lowest cost.
• Fans of a heavily used rifle with patchy green and metal.
• Conclusion: Electrum for play only, with the finish mostly rubbed away.
