Souvenir XM1014 | Tranquility (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

This XM1014 skin is built around contrast: a solid coral-red finish on the furniture and receiver, and a yellow-orange hand-painted woman with flowing hair in the middle of the gun. In Field-Tested the red picks up visible scuffs along edges and the forend, while the portrait still reads clearly in the hands. The finish looks used but keeps its character.

Item type: shotgun. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

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

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The receiver, forend, pistol grip and stock are covered in coral red with lighter, mottled patches, while the barrel and magazine tube stay a dark reddish-brown. The centre of the receiver side carries a hand-painted panel in yellow and orange showing a woman with long, flowing hair.

Scuffs become visible on the forend ribs, the receiver edges, the grip and the butt of the stock, showing darker metal underneath. The portrait still reads clearly, with only light marks near its edges on the higher end of the range. In game the gun looks used, but the red and gold combination stays intact.

Field-Tested quality — float range 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of Souvenir XM1014 | Tranquility is 0–0.5; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (46% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Origin of the skin

Souvenir XM1014 | Tranquility belongs to The Vanguard Collection, which holds 14 skins.

It drops from Operation Vanguard Weapon Case (on sale since Nov 5, 2014).

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

Gold, yellow and warm orange stickers pick up the colours of the portrait, while red or black stickers blend into the body. Placements on the stock or forend keep the painted panel on the receiver free.

What to check before buying

• Look at the float within the wear grade, since a low value keeps the portrait panel noticeably cleaner.
• Check the inspect view of the receiver side to see how much detail the portrait has kept.
• Look at the forend ribs, muzzle and stock edges, as these parts lose paint first.
• Check applied stickers and the name tag so they match your plans for the gun.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who use the XM1014 regularly and want the red and gold scheme.
• Buyers who accept edge wear as long as the portrait stays readable.
• A practical option for everyday play.
