Souvenir M4A1-S | Printstream (Factory New)

Skin overview

M4A1-S | Printstream is a white rifle with fine black line art and a soft pearlescent sheen. In Factory New the white surfaces stay bright and even, and every small graphic on the receiver, magazine and suppressor is sharp. This is the cleanest form of the design, where the contrast between white and black reads exactly as painted.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

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

Appearance in Factory New

The suppressor is painted white with black script-like line art and a thin black band near its rear end. The handguard is white with fine horizontal ribs, while the barrel, front sight, pistol grip and stock stay black, framing the light body.

The white paint is clean across the suppressor, handguard, receiver and magazine. The black line art keeps sharp edges and the pearlescent sheen is uniform. In game the rifle looks bright and crisp from any angle. Nothing on the weapon shows scuffing or grime.

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

Black, white, silver and holographic or foil stickers fit the monochrome pearlescent design best. A single colour accent, placed on the receiver or near the magazine, can stand out against the white without breaking the style.

What to check before buying

• Look at the float position within the wear range, since white paint shows every bit of wear more clearly than dark finishes.
• Check the suppressor tip and the magazine edges first, as they wear before the rest of the rifle.
• Inspect the receiver graphics on worn copies to see how much of the black line art is still intact.
• Note any stickers or name tag already applied, because they change the clean white look.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the white and pearlescent finish in its cleanest form.
• Players building monochrome sticker crafts that need spotless white paint.
• Conclusion: the grade for those who want the design exactly as painted.
