Souvenir P250 | Sand Dune (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

P250 | Sand Dune in Battle-Scarred is the plain tan pistol at its most weathered. Paint is chipped heavily on edges, raised parts and the front of the slide, and dark metal breaks up the sand colour across the weapon. It suits those who want a rough, field-used look on a simple finish.

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, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The slide is painted a pale sand tan from the muzzle to the rear serrations, while the muzzle opening, slide catch and takedown lever stay dark metal. The frame and trigger guard share the same tan, with the dark trigger standing out against it.

Heavy chipping covers the slide edges, the muzzle end, the trigger guard, the grip base and the magazine. Patches of dark metal also appear on the flatter areas of the slide and frame. Because the range stops short of the maximum float, the paint does not disappear entirely. In game the pistol reads as a mix of tan and dark metal.

Battle-Scarred wear: float 0.45–0.8

The whole float range of Souvenir P250 | Sand Dune is 0.06–0.8; Battle-Scarred takes the 0.45–0.8 segment (47% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

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

Earthy browns, olive and muted gold stickers blend with the sand tone for a quiet desert theme. Black or dark grey stickers echo the metal controls, and a single bright accent on the slide works well against the plain background.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear range, since chipping on a solid colour is easy to spot.
• Look at the slide edges, muzzle and magazine base first, as these lose paint before anything else.
• There is no pattern on this finish, so pattern index does not change the look.
• Check for applied stickers and a name tag, since they stand out strongly on the plain tan surface.

• Minimal-cost entry for a skin on the P250.
