M4A1-S | Liquidation (Minimal Wear)

The M4A1-S | Liquidation (Minimal Wear) is a Restricted rifle skin with a dark, near-black body and glowing red and blue highlights. Minimal Wear is the second-highest grade, keeping the finish almost pristine while costing a step below Factory New.

Design

The Liquidation leans on a dark, industrial base with red and blue accents that appear to glow under ambient light — a look created by community artist Mei, who also designed the companion MP5-SD | Liquidation with the same metallic, high-contrast style. It ships with a fitting in-game line: "Quiet reflection."

M4A1-S | Liquidation (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

Across the finish's full 0.00–1.00 float range, Minimal Wear falls just below Factory New. At this level the red and blue highlights stay vivid and the dark base still reads smooth, with only the faintest edge wear that's easy to miss in-game. It's the value pick for players who want near-top condition without paying for the very best grade.

M4A1-S | Liquidation Rarity

Rarity: Restricted. That's the purple grade, ranked above Mil-Spec and below Classified — a mid-high slot among the standard weapon tiers and a reasonably uncommon pull.

M4A1-S | Liquidation Case and Collection

Part of The Genesis Collection, the Liquidation is unboxed from the Sealed Genesis Terminal case that arrived with the Show Off update in September 2025. Across the case the Restricted tier drops at about 15.98% (that figure is shared among the tier's skins), placing it among the case's more common outcomes.

M4A1-S | Liquidation Patterns

This finish has no paint-seed roll — the dark base and the red and blue highlights are placed identically on every copy, which means there's no "blue gem" or rare pattern worth tracking down. The only real differences between copies are wear and float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There's no StatTrak edition of this skin, so a kill counter simply isn't an option here. A Souvenir version doesn't exist either, since Souvenir weapons are produced only from Major-tournament packages and The Genesis Collection has never featured as a Major drop.

M4A1-S | Liquidation Price

Minimal Wear sits just under Factory New on the finish's price ladder, offering nearly the same look for a little less. It's a strong value angle on a skin that already lands in the budget bracket for M4A1-S finishes. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

How does Minimal Wear compare to Factory New?

Very closely. The dark base hides the tiny amount of wear Minimal Wear carries, so the glowing red and blue detail looks almost identical to Factory New at normal viewing distance. You save a bit versus the top grade, which is why many buyers treat this as the smarter pick.

Is Minimal Wear a good budget entry to the finish?

It is. The Liquidation is already an affordable M4A1-S, and Minimal Wear trims the price a little more while keeping the surface looking nearly flawless. If you want high condition without paying the Factory New premium, this grade hits the sweet spot.

Does this skin come with a StatTrak counter?

No. The finish was released as a standard skin only, so there's no StatTrak variant in any grade — the kill-counter option isn't part of this release.
