StatTrak™ MP9 | Rose Iron (Factory New)

Skin overview

MP9 | Rose Iron is a Restricted SMG finish with a hand-painted rose and thorn motif in metallic paints over a dark body. A red rose sits on the side of the receiver, and gold thorny vines curl across the frame and both grips. In Factory New the metallic gold and red stay crisp against the dark base, with no breaks in the vine lines.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

The same quality also exists as the Souvenir version.

Appearance in Factory New

The receiver and barrel shroud are finished in a dark gunmetal tone with ribbed texture, covered by looping gold thorny vines and small red dots. A large red rose with gold outlines is painted on the rear of the receiver, near the charging area.

In Factory New the finish is intact on every part of the weapon. The gold vines keep their metallic sheen and the red rose shows clean edges. In game the contrast between gold, red and the dark frame reads clearly in hand. Nothing on the receiver, grips or muzzle shows scratches.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position, since Field-Tested copies of this skin only cover the cleanest part of that grade.
• Look at the top rail and muzzle end, which are the first parts to lose paint.
• Make sure the rose on the receiver is not covered by stickers if the artwork matters to you.
• Note any name tag or StatTrak™ counter and whether you want them on your copy.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the metallic rose and vines without any marks.
• Players building sticker crafts where a clean base matters.
• A choice for those who want the skin exactly as painted.
