XM1014 | Seasons (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Seasons is recognisable by its warm leaf pattern running along the long tubes of the XM1014, framed by a dark grey pump and a light grey stock. In Field-Tested the colours start to lose some depth and light scuffs appear on the edges, yet the leaves are still clearly readable. This grade keeps the autumn character of the skin while showing that the gun has been used.

Item type: shotgun. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Patina: an aged metal surface; wear is part of the design, so the gap between qualities is less visible.

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

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The barrel and the magazine tube below it are covered in a scale-like mosaic of leaves in red, orange and rust tones, with an orange muzzle at the front. Toward the receiver the pattern turns green and yellow, most visibly under the top rail.

Light scuffs and slight darkening show on the muzzle, the tube edges and the front of the magazine tube. The red and orange lose a little depth, and the leaf borders soften slightly in these places. In game the pattern still reads clearly and the gun looks warm and colourful. The green and yellow section near the receiver stays mostly clean.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of XM1014 | Seasons is 0–0.5; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (46% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the colour distribution on the inspect screen, since the pattern is randomised and some copies carry more green or yellow than others.
• Look at the muzzle and the front of the magazine tube, where wear shows first.
• Note where the float sits within the wear grade, as copies near the cleaner end look noticeably fresher.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, since they affect how the colourful barrel and receiver read together.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who want the warm colourful pattern for everyday use.
• Buyers looking for a balance between appearance and cost.
• Conclusion: a sensible middle option that still shows the full palette.
