Souvenir MAC-10 | Propaganda (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Propaganda keeps its bold red stripes and the eyes motif in Field-Tested, but the cream background starts to show scuffs. The graphic is large and high-contrast, so it still reads clearly in game. A good middle ground for players who want the recognisable poster look on a working weapon.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

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: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The receiver is painted in a warm cream tone crossed by red diagonal stripes, with a yellow sun disc on a red field near the front and a grey photographic pair of eyes towards the rear. Cyrillic words are printed along the body, including контроль on the receiver, with more lettering running down towards the grip.

Scratches become visible on the receiver edges, the front of the body and the bottom of the magazine, and the cream base looks slightly dulled. The smaller lettering may start to fade at the edges. In game the red stripes and the eyes still carry the design clearly. The central part of the receiver side usually stays in good shape.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of Souvenir MAC-10 | Propaganda is 0–0.62; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (37% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Origin of the skin

The skin’s collection is The 2021 Train Collection with 17 skins in total. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

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

Red, black and gold stickers fit the poster palette and keep the agitprop feel. Placing them on the cream part of the receiver away from the eyes keeps the main motif visible.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since a low float looks noticeably cleaner on the cream areas.
• Look at the eyes and the lettering in the inspect view, because these details lose clarity first as wear grows.
• Inspect the top edges of the receiver and the bottom of the magazine, where the paint goes first.
• On Souvenir copies, check whether the applied stickers suit the red-and-cream artwork.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who want the recognisable red stripes and eyes on an everyday weapon.
• Buyers looking for a balance between appearance and cost.
• Conclusion: a sensible middle option for regular play.
