Souvenir M4A4 | Zirka (Factory New)

Skin overview

M4A4 | Zirka is a Restricted rifle finish in muted olive and khaki tones with one bright accent: a yellow star emblem with an interlaced pattern on the side of the receiver. In Factory New the olive paint is even across the whole rifle, and the star keeps sharp edges and a saturated yellow. This is the cleanest version available and the one that best shows the contrast between the subdued base and the emblem.

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.

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

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

How the skin looks in Factory New

The whole rifle is covered in an olive-khaki spray-paint base, darker and greyer on the receiver and lighter on the handguard and stock. Thin light grey swirling lines run across the receiver, magazine and grip, giving the surface a faint engraved texture.

The paint is intact on every part, including the muzzle, the carry handle and the magazine base. The yellow star has crisp outlines and full saturation, and the fine grey lines on the receiver are clearly visible. At normal distance in game the rifle looks perfectly uniform. The Factory New window for this skin is narrow, so copies are less common than the other grades.

Factory New wear: float 0.06–0.07

The float of Souvenir M4A4 | Zirka ranges from 0.06 to 0.42; the Factory New quality covers 0.06–0.07 — 3% of this skin’s scale. The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Where the skin comes from: collection and case

Souvenir M4A4 | Zirka belongs to The Bravo Collection, which holds 15 skins.

It drops from Operation Bravo Case (on sale since Sep 20, 2013).

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

Yellow, gold and black stickers tie in with the star emblem, while muted olive or brown ones blend with the base. Placing them along the handguard keeps the star on the receiver clear.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within its grade, since the Factory New window is narrow and low-float Minimal Wear can look almost the same.
• Look at the yellow star on the receiver in the inspect view, because on worn copies it is the detail that decides how the skin reads.
• Inspect the muzzle, carry handle and magazine base, which lose paint first.
• Check applied stickers and name tags, as bright stickers can compete with the single yellow accent.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the cleanest copy and value the narrow top grade.
• Crafters who want an untouched base for gold or yellow sticker combinations.
• The right pick if you want the star and the olive paint in perfect condition.
