MAC-10 | Propaganda (Battle-Scarred)

The MAC-10 | Propaganda (Battle-Scarred) is the roughest-looking grade of this red, message-driven finish. It's the most accessible way into an otherwise grail-tier design.

Design

The MAC-10 carries a red paint job with a pair of eyes and Russian text reading "control" and "fear," a bold Valve design built around a propaganda theme. The flavor text "You don't believe them, do you?" rounds out the concept.

MAC-10 | Propaganda (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

This finish caps out at 0.62 rather than the full 1.0, so even Battle-Scarred copies stop short of the most extreme wear the game allows. Expect clear scuffing and paint loss across the body at this grade, but the eyes-and-text artwork stays visible enough to keep the design readable.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Rarity

Rarity is Classified here, the pink tier positioned just below Covert — a genuinely uncommon grade regardless of wear.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Case and Collection

Battle-Scarred copies still belong to The 2021 Train Collection, released with Operation Riptide in September 2021. This finish isn't tied to any case, so supply comes entirely from the collection's own drop pool.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Patterns

The artwork doesn't vary by seed on this finish — every copy carries the same eyes-and-text placement, so there's no blue-gem variant worth chasing. Only wear grade separates one copy's look from another's.

StatTrak & Souvenir

No StatTrak or Souvenir version of the Propaganda exists at any wear. Souvenir status only comes from Major-tournament packages, and since this collection has never featured in one, the finish stays regular-only across every grade.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Price

Battle-Scarred sits at the bottom of the Propaganda's price ladder, making it the most attainable way into an otherwise high-end, grail-tier finish. Available on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does Battle-Scarred still show the Propaganda design clearly?

Yes — even with heavier scuffing, the red base and the eyes-and-text artwork remain visible enough to identify the finish, helped by the fact that the float cap keeps this skin from reaching the most extreme wear possible.

Is Battle-Scarred a smart way to own a grail-tier MAC-10 skin?

For buyers who want the Propaganda's design without paying grail-tier prices at the top grades, yes — it's the lowest-cost entry point. Just expect visibly worn paint compared with the cleaner grades above it.

Why isn't the Battle-Scarred Propaganda fully worn out?

Because this finish is float-capped at 0.62 instead of the theoretical 1.0 maximum, even its roughest copies stay noticeably milder than a full-range skin would at the same grade name.
