Souvenir R8 Revolver | Tango (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

Tango dresses the R8 Revolver in a romantic theme: roses climbing over a dark steel body, brass details and a pale wooden grip with ornate carving. At Minimal Wear the look is practically the same as the cleanest grade, with only faint marks that are hard to spot outside close inspection. It suits buyers who want a clean revolver and are happy to accept a hint of use.

Item type: pistol. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

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

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The frame, cylinder and barrel are finished in dark, almost black blued steel with a cool blue sheen. Red roses with green leaves and thin climbing vines are painted across the barrel shroud, the side of the frame and the cylinder.

Small light scuffs may appear on the muzzle and the edges of the top rail. The roses and vines are still fully intact, and the frame keeps its dark sheen. At normal distance in game it is hard to tell apart from Factory New. The grip and brass details remain clean.

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

Red, gold and dark green stickers match the roses, vines and brass accents. Placements on the frame side work best, as they leave the roses on the barrel visible. Vintage or floral-styled stickers fit the theme of the finish.

What to check before buying

• Look at where the float sits within its wear range, since lower values keep more of the roses on the barrel.
• Check the muzzle, top rail and cylinder edges, as they lose the dark finish first.
• Make sure the roses on the frame and cylinder are intact on the inspect screen.
• Note any stickers or name tag and whether they suit the floral theme.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want an almost factory look while saving compared to the cleanest grade.
• Sticker crafters for whom tiny marks on the muzzle do not matter.
• A sensible balance between appearance and cost.
