Souvenir P250 | Copper Oxide (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Copper Oxide is recognisable by its split colour scheme, a warm metallic slide on top of a light blue body. In Field-Tested the paint starts to chip at the edges, and darker metal shows through around the muzzle and slide corners. The colours stay readable, but the gun looks carried rather than fresh.

Item type: pistol. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

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

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The slide is painted a solid rose gold with a copper, slightly reddish tone, including the muzzle face and the rear serrations. The frame, trigger guard and grip are a pale blue, close to mint, with the textured grip panel in the same colour.

Chips become visible on the muzzle, slide edges, serrations and the front of the frame, with dark metal showing through. The magazine base and beavertail may also start to lose paint. In game the two colours still read clearly, with the wear showing as a darker outline along the edges. Flat surfaces of the slide and the grip panel mostly stay intact.

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 copper, gold, teal or pale blue tones blend well with the two-colour scheme. Placing them on the pale blue frame gives the most contrast, while warm metallic stickers on the slide area keep the look restrained.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since chips on the light frame become noticeable quickly as wear grows.
• Look at the muzzle, slide edges and front of the frame, as these lose paint first.
• There is no pattern on this finish, so copies of the same wear differ only by float, stickers and name tag.
• On Souvenir copies, check the condition and placement of the applied stickers.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who want the colour scheme in game and do not mind edge chips.
• Budget buyers looking for a readable two-tone pistol.
• A practical everyday copy for regular play.
