AK-47 | VariCamo Grey (Minimal Wear)

The Minimal Wear (MW) AK-47 | VariCamo Grey is a CS2 camo rifle in gray-olive tones, with wear that is only hinted at. The skin is Industrial Grade and part of The Boreal Collection, and no case contains it. Among its five wears, this one is second from the bottom by price.

What the AK-47 | VariCamo Grey looks like in Minimal Wear

The pattern is fine mottling in olive-gray, dark gray and light shades across the handguard, receiver, stock and grip. The magazine has light lengthwise stripes, the barrel is dark, and the front sight is olive. The palette is restrained, with no bright color anywhere.

The float range for this wear is 0.07 to 0.15, which is 12% of a scale that runs to 0.67. The camo is mottled anyway, so light scuffing on the edges all but disappears in it. On the AK-47 | VariCamo Grey the wear is fixed at drop.

Where the AK-47 | VariCamo Grey came from

The skin came out in March 2025, when The Boreal Collection was added to the game. There is no data on the author or on a Steam Workshop submission.
