MP5-SD | Gauss (Minimal Wear)

The MP5-SD | Gauss (Minimal Wear) keeps the stamped-steel look close to pristine. It's a strong second choice to the top grade, offering nearly the full design at a lower cost.

Design

Millenia's design for this finish reads as gray panels stamped and pieced together like scrap steel, a rougher, more industrial sci-fi look than the smooth style of many other skins. It's earned the nickname "SpaceGat 2000" among players, a fitting tag for its futuristic plating.

MP5-SD | Gauss (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

Float on this finish runs the entire 0.00–1.00 range, and Minimal Wear falls just above the lowest point of it. Wear at this grade is minimal enough that it's hard to spot without close inspection, so the stamped-steel panel lines still read almost exactly as they do at Factory New.

MP5-SD | Gauss Rarity

Rarity: Restricted — the purple tier, sitting above Mil-Spec Grade and below Classified and Covert. It's a genuinely uncommon grade to pull from a case.

MP5-SD | Gauss Case and Collection

Gauss is part of The Prisma Collection, unboxed from the Prisma Case that launched in March 2019. As a Restricted finish it drops at around 15.98% from that case, a much tighter rate than the common Mil-Spec tier.

MP5-SD | Gauss Patterns

Every copy carries the same fixed stamped-steel layout — there's no seed-based pattern to chase and no rare "blue gem" version, since the artwork never shifts. Only the wear grade changes how sharp it looks.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There's a StatTrak™ edition sourced from the same Prisma Case, adding a permanent kill counter that stays with the weapon through any trade or sale. No Souvenir edition exists, because Souvenir drops are tied exclusively to Major-tournament packages, and this collection has never been part of one.

MP5-SD | Gauss Price

Minimal Wear lands just under Factory New on the price ladder, offering nearly the same clean look for a bit less. Gauss overall sits in the premium bracket, so even this second grade carries a real price tag. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Can you tell Minimal Wear apart from Factory New on the Gauss?

Rarely without close inspection. Wear at this grade is subtle enough that the stamped-steel panels still look essentially fresh, which is why Minimal Wear is a popular way to save some money over the top grade.

Does the Gauss come in StatTrak?

Yes — a StatTrak™ version exists from the same Prisma Case and adds a permanent confirmed-kill counter to the weapon. It's rarer and pricier than the standard skin, since it stacks the StatTrak roll on top of an already Restricted-tier drop.

Is the Gauss an expensive MP5-SD skin?

Yes, it sits in the premium bracket overall, reflecting both its Restricted rarity and its distinctive sci-fi design. Minimal Wear and Factory New carry the highest prices in the lineup.
