M4A1-S | Leaded Glass (Factory New)

The M4A1-S | Leaded Glass in Factory New (FN) is the top of the skin on price: the other wears cost almost three times less. The wear band runs from 0.00 to 0.07, ten percent of the scale. It is a Classified rank skin from The Spectrum 2 Collection and the Spectrum 2 Case.

What the M4A1-S | Leaded Glass looks like in Factory New

The skin recalls stained glass in a black setting. The shards are orange, yellow, red, turquoise and blue, with dark outline bridges between them. The pattern covers the suppressor, the receiver sides, the grip and the stock; the ribbed part of the handguard stays dark gray metal, and the magazine is dark. Separate angular segments can be made out, with no figures or lettering.

In Factory New the bridges are whole along every edge, so the end of the suppressor and the corners of the stock do not lighten. Those are the places that tear first on the lower wears.

Where the M4A1-S | Leaded Glass came from

Stickers and craft on the M4A1-S | Leaded Glass

On intact glass a sticker interferes with the artwork less than on a worn copy, where the light gaps break the outlines. White and black stickers read better, and colored ones sink into the shards. The ribbed handguard and the magazine are left for a craft: they are dark and have no pattern.

• the M4A1-S is for a CS2 collection, not for combat;


• the near-threefold difference from the other wears does not bother you.
