Souvenir MP5-SD | Desert Strike (Factory New)

Skin overview

MP5-SD | Desert-Strike is an SMG finished in a tan and black high-tech scheme, with a dark ribbed suppressor and sand-coloured accents on the receiver, grip and magazine. In Factory New the thin yellow markings on the suppressor and magazine stay sharp, and the tan parts keep an even, matte tone.

Item type: smg. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

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

Other 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 integrated suppressor is dark olive-black with a fine ribbed texture, thin yellow dashed lines along its length and small markings near the muzzle, ending in a tan band where it meets the receiver. The receiver is black with a tan rear section, small yellow stripes and tan sights on top.

The finish is complete on every part, with no chips on the suppressor tip or the magazine edges. The yellow dashes and small markings are crisp and the tan areas have a uniform matte surface. In game the contrast between the black and tan sections looks clean at any distance.

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

Stickers in tan, gold, yellow or black blend with the scheme, while a single bright accent can stand out against the dark suppressor. Placements on the receiver above the magazine work well, as the area is plain dark and frames the sticker cleanly.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the cleaner end keep the yellow markings noticeably sharper.
• Look at the suppressor tip, magazine edges and tan grip, as these show damage first.
• Review any applied stickers and name tag, and decide whether you want a StatTrak™ or Souvenir version.
• The design has no pattern variation that matters, so focus on wear rather than seed.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Players who want the sharpest yellow markings and even tan surfaces.
• Collectors building a clean tan and black inventory.
• Sticker crafters who need an undamaged base.
• The choice for anyone who values a flawless finish.
