MAG-7 | Petroglyph (Field-Tested)

The MAG-7 | Petroglyph (Field-Tested) is a Restricted shotgun skin painted to resemble an ancient rock carving. Field-Tested is the most common and most affordable way to own it, with light honest wear worked into the etched surface.

Design

Built around a historical, hand-carved look, the finish is painted to give the illusion of a rock carving so the whole MAG-7 reads like etched stone. It's a community submission from the artist PTP, and it comes with a fitting in-game line: "Conflict existed since the first caveman learned how to pick up a rock."

MAG-7 | Petroglyph (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

The finish is float-capped at 0.44, and Field-Tested copies sit in the middle of that 0.00–0.44 band. Expect visible scratching along the edges and high-contact areas, though the busy carved texture absorbs a lot of it, so the artwork still reads clearly. This is the grade most players picture as the everyday Petroglyph.

MAG-7 | Petroglyph Rarity

Rarity: Restricted — the pink tier, positioned a couple of grades under Covert on the standard weapon scale. Pulling one from a case is uncommon without being top-tier rare.

MAG-7 | Petroglyph Case and Collection

This finish is part of The Gamma 2 Collection and unboxes from the Gamma 2 Case, which arrived in August 2016. The Restricted tier drops about 16% of the time from that case (a rate shared across the tier), and because the Gamma 2 Case has left the active drop pool, supply stays fixed and most copies are bought on the market.

MAG-7 | Petroglyph Patterns

No paint seed matters here — the etched carving is a fixed design that lands identically on every copy, so there's no "blue gem" or lucky pattern to hunt. The only meaningful differences between copies are the wear grade and float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak version does exist, produced through the Gamma 2 Case, adding a confirmed-kill counter to the shotgun; it's rarer and more expensive than the plain finish, and the counter is permanent — it never gets wiped when the item changes hands. There's no Souvenir edition, as Souvenir weapons are minted only from Major-tournament packages and this one was never part of a Major drop.

MAG-7 | Petroglyph Price

Field-Tested is the value sweet spot of the range — cheaper than the higher grades while keeping the carved artwork readable, which is why it's the most-traded version. It keeps the skin firmly in affordable mid-tier territory for a MAG-7. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does the Field-Tested Petroglyph look beaten up?

Not badly. There's visible scratching on the edges and contact points, but the busy carved texture hides a lot of it, so the rock-carving illusion still reads clearly in-game. For the price, it's the most sensible grade if you want the design without paying for a higher condition.

Is Field-Tested the best value grade?

For most buyers, yes. It costs less than Factory New and Minimal Wear while keeping the etched artwork legible, and it's the most common version on the market. Well-Worn is cheaper still, but the difference in look is small enough that Field-Tested usually wins on value.

Why is a shotgun skin this affordable?

The MAG-7 is a secondary shotgun rather than a rifle or knife, so its skins draw less demand and sit lower on the price scale. Combined with the Restricted tier's supply and a mid-range float, that keeps the Petroglyph in affordable mid-tier territory — a lot of character for not much money.
