Souvenir XM1014 | Halftone Shift (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Halftone Shift relies on a dotted pattern that fades from vivid green to muted olive along the length of the gun. In Field-Tested the overall scheme is intact, but chips start to show at the muzzle, along the top of the receiver and on the forend ribs. The dots are small and busy, so these marks blend in more than they would on a solid colour.

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

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

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

Appearance in Field-Tested

The barrels and muzzle carry the brightest part of the gradient, a light green halftone with rounded dot clusters, and the magazine tube under the barrel repeats it. Moving back, the colour shifts to olive and khaki across the ribbed forend and the receiver, where the dot patches grow larger and blend into the base tone.

Small chips become visible around the muzzle, along the top of the receiver and on the raised forend ribs. The halftone dots start to break up in these spots, while the flat surfaces still hold the full pattern. In game the gun looks lightly used, and the busy print hides much of the wear. The stock front may pick up the first light scratches.

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

Stickers in green, olive, khaki or beige tones sit naturally on the receiver and blend with the gradient. Holo or gold stickers with a dotted or print-like look echo the halftone theme, and dark designs contrast well against the lighter khaki body.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the grade, because a low float keeps the muzzle and forend ribs noticeably cleaner.
• Look at the muzzle ends and the top edges of the receiver, where chips appear first.
• Inspect the forend ribs, since wear there breaks up the dot pattern most visibly.
• Check for applied stickers or a name tag and decide whether they fit your plans for the gun.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• For players who want the colour scheme in game and do not inspect the gun up close.
• For those who value the busy dot pattern hiding small chips.
• Conclusion: a balanced middle grade for everyday play.
