Souvenir MP5-SD | Picnic (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

In Battle-Scarred the red finish is broken up by large patches of bare metal, especially along the long suppressor. The X pattern survives only in fragments, giving the skin a weathered, rusty-looking red. It is the cheapest way to put a red MP5-SD in your hands.

Item type: smg. Industrial Grade is the second tier from the bottom: common skins from drops and collections.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The suppressor, ribbed handguard, receiver, pistol grip and stock end are all painted red, with a pale pinkish rim at the muzzle. Over the receiver, grip and suppressor runs a mottled pattern of offset X's in lighter and darker reds, which gives the surface a fabric-like check.

Large areas of bare metal cover the suppressor, the handguard and the receiver edges. The grip and stock show heavy wear, and the X pattern remains only in fragments. In game the red looks patchy and weathered. The black magazine looks the same as on cleaner copies.

Which stickers suit it

Red, white and black stickers suit the monochrome red finish and continue the tablecloth theme. Placements on the receiver side above the magazine and on the flat part of the suppressor are visible from the first-person view.

What to check before buying

• Look at the float within the wear range, since copies near the top of a grade show noticeably cleaner suppressor edges.
• Inspect the muzzle rim and handguard ribs, as these are the first places where the red wears through.
• Souvenir copies come with stickers already applied, so check whether they fit the red finish.
• Check for a name tag if you want the original item name.
