Souvenir MP9 | Arctic Tri-Tone (Factory New)

Skin overview

MP9 | Arctic Tri-Tone is a Gunsmith finish for the counter-terrorist SMG. The pale cream body is split by a dark blue band along the receiver, broken up with white camouflage patches, and small orange details sit at the muzzle, selector and trigger. In Factory New the white surfaces stay even and bright, and the edges between the blocks look sharp.

Item type: smg. 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.

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

Appearance in Factory New

The upper receiver and handguard are painted a pale cream, with a dark navy band running along the lower part of the receiver from the muzzle to the rear. White and grey camouflage patches are scattered over this band, tying it to the light panels above.

The cream paint is even across the receiver, stock and grips, with no chipping on the edges. The border between the white panels and the blue band is crisp, and the orange details are bright. In game the gun looks clean and light from any distance. Everything on the weapon looks fresh.

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

Stickers in white, navy, grey or ice blue blend with the scheme, while a single orange or holographic accent echoes the small orange details. The light cream receiver above the blue band is the most visible spot for a placement.

What to check before buying

• Look at the float position within the grade, since a low float keeps the white surfaces noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the top rail, muzzle end and stock edges, where chipping on the light paint shows first.
• Check the grips, because the ribbed white areas pick up scuffs early.
• Make sure applied stickers or a name tag fit the white-and-blue scheme you want.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the white panels completely clean.
• Sticker crafters, since bright cream gives a neutral base for any colours.
• Conclusion: the grade for those who value a spotless light finish.
