Souvenir XM1014 | Blaze Orange (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

This XM1014 finish combines orange hydrographic film with a photographic hunting camo. In Well-Worn the paint is clearly rubbed through on the front of the barrel and the edges of the stock, giving a used, field-carried look. The bright orange still covers the central parts of the gun.

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

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Well-Worn

The barrel, magazine tube and receiver are covered in a bright blaze orange hydrographic with irregular dark brown camo blotches that resemble leaves and branches. The same pattern continues over the forend and the skeleton stock, while the pistol grip and some front details are a light tan.

The front of the barrel and magazine tube show dark metal through larger rubbed patches. The stock edges and grip are clearly worn. The receiver keeps most of its orange, though scratches reach it. From normal distance the gun looks orange but visibly used.

Well-Worn quality — float range 0.38–0.45

What it costs in each quality

Among 7 skins of the XM1014 in the Mil-Spec Grade grade and this quality, this skin is the dearest.

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

Black, brown and gold stickers match the dark camo and tan grip without fighting the orange. Orange or tan holo stickers placed along the receiver keep the hunting theme consistent. Avoid strong reds and pinks, which clash with the blaze orange base.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the cleaner end of a grade show less damage at the muzzle and stock.
• Look at the camo placement on the receiver, because the hydrographic print shifts between copies.
• Inspect the muzzle, rail and stock corners first, as these parts lose paint earliest.
• For Souvenir copies, check how the pre-applied stickers look against the orange.

Who the Well-Worn quality suits

• Budget buyers who still want a mostly orange receiver.
• Players who like a used, field-carried appearance.
• In short: an affordable way to get the colour with visible character.
