MAC-10 | Propaganda (Factory New)

The MAC-10 | Propaganda (Factory New) is a Classified SMG finish painted with a pair of watching eyes and Russian text reading "control" and "fear." Factory New shows this striking red design at its most legible.

Design

A red base carries a custom paint job of a pair of eyes alongside Russian words for "control" and "fear," a bold, thematic look built for maximum visual impact. It's a Valve-made finish, and the in-game line "You don't believe them, do you?" leans straight into the propaganda concept.

MAC-10 | Propaganda (Factory New) Float and Wear

Float on this finish runs from 0.00 to 0.62, and Factory New sits at the very bottom. At this grade the red paint reads bold and even, and every line of the eyes-and-text artwork stays sharp with no scuffing to blur it. The float cap tops out at 0.62 rather than a full 1.0, so even the roughest copies of this skin stay milder than an uncapped finish — more on that on the Battle-Scarred page.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Rarity

Rarity: Classified, the pink tier — one step below Covert and second from the top of the standard weapon grades. It's a genuinely uncommon pull.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Case and Collection

This finish belongs to The 2021 Train Collection, released with Operation Riptide in September 2021. There's no weapon case tied to it, so supply comes from the collection's own drop pool rather than case unboxing.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Patterns

The Propaganda has no random pattern variation — the eyes-and-text artwork sits in the same place on every copy, so there's no paint seed or "blue gem" version to chase. Wear and float alone decide how a given copy looks.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This finish exists as a regular version only — no StatTrak and no Souvenir edition. There's no Souvenir version because Souvenir weapons are only produced from Major-tournament packages, and The 2021 Train Collection has never been used for one.

MAC-10 | Propaganda Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Propaganda's own price ladder, and this is a genuine grail-tier finish for the model, priced well above most other MAC-10 skins even before accounting for grade. This skin is available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Why is the MAC-10 | Propaganda so expensive?

It's a Classified finish tied to a case-free collection, which limits how it enters the market, and it sits at the high end of the MAC-10's own price range overall. Factory New, as the top grade, commands the highest price within that already grail-tier finish.

How rare is a Factory New Propaganda?

The finish itself is uncommon at Classified rarity, and Factory New specifically needs a float under 0.07 within a 0.00–0.62 range, a narrower slice than the lower grades combined. That scarcity is part of why this grade commands the biggest premium.

What are the best gloves for the MAC-10 | Propaganda?

The bold red artwork calls for a matching loadout, so red gloves make the best MAC-10 Propaganda glove combo, picking up the color without competing with the eyes-and-text design. Black gloves work too if you want the red to stand out as the sole focal point.
