Souvenir Nova | Wild Six (Factory New)

Skin overview

Nova | Wild Six is a Gunsmith finish that gives the shotgun a post-apocalyptic look: weathered copper and rust tones, a stencilled WILD on the side and a teal number panel on the stock. In Factory New the copper keeps its deep gloss and the lettering and panel edges stay sharp. The rough, aged character is part of the design, not a sign of use.

Item type: shotgun. 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.

The remaining 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 forend is the focal point: copper-orange with fine ribbed grooves and darker rust streaks running along it. The receiver continues the copper and brown tones, with a light WILD stencil near the ejection area.

The copper gloss is even across the forend, receiver and stock, and the ribbed grooves are crisp. The WILD stencil and the teal number panel have clean edges. In game the gun reads as bright orange against the dark barrel. Everything looks untouched apart from the weathering painted into the design.

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

Rusty orange, brown and teal stickers continue the post-apocalyptic palette, and stencil-style or worn-look designs suit it best. Placements on the receiver near the WILD lettering or on the stock beside the number panel keep the forend's ribbed artwork visible.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within its wear grade, since a low float keeps the forend and stock edges noticeably cleaner.
• Look at the WILD stencil and the teal number panel, as these details show wear early and define the skin's look.
• Inspect the forend edges and stock corners in the inspect view, because that is where the copper wears through first.
• Check applied stickers and the name tag to make sure they suit the orange-teal scheme.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the copper gloss and stencils in their cleanest form.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base around the receiver and stock panel.
• Conclusion: the top choice for a crisp copy of a deliberately rough design.
