Souvenir M4A4 | Magnesium (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Battle-Scarred Magnesium looks like a rifle that has been through a lot: worn bare edges, faded panels and only traces of the white hand-painted artwork. The dark base keeps it from looking messy, so the rough look fits the theme of the finish. The cheapest entry to this skin.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

The remaining 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 receiver and the upper are dark grey, almost black, with a thin red accent along the lower edge of the handguard and near the trigger. The handguard and the stock carry a light grey-beige surface with a fine woven texture, so the front and the rear of the rifle read lighter than the middle.

The magazine, grip and stock are heavily worn, with bare metal on edges and raised parts. The woven texture of the panels is faded and the white artwork remains only as traces. The receiver also shows scratches, though its dark tone keeps the rifle readable in game.

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

White, black and grey stickers keep the calm monochrome look, while a single red sticker echoes the small red accents near the handguard and trigger. Placements on the dark receiver give the most contrast.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the light magazine shows chips earlier than the dark receiver.
• Look at the magazine and grip on the inspect screen to see how much of the white artwork remains.
• Check the edges of the handguard and the corners of the stock, which are the first parts to lose paint.
• Note any stickers or name tag and whether they suit the grey-and-white scheme.

Who the Battle-Scarred quality suits

• Players looking for the lowest-cost entry to this skin.
• Those who like a heavily used, rough look.
• The budget option that still keeps the dark base.
