XM1014 | Charter (Factory New)

The XM1014 | Charter (Factory New) is a Consumer Grade shotgun printed with a tan pattern of crests, scrawls, and text drawn from the Magna Carta. Factory New is the cleanest grade it comes in, showing the lettering and crests at their sharpest and most legible.

Design

Charter wraps the shotgun in a tan-colored pattern of heraldic crests, handwritten scrawls, and text lifted from the Magna Carta — a parchment-and-document theme unlike most shotgun finishes. It's a Valve-made finish, and it carries a pointed in-game line: "Everyone is subject to due process—even you."

XM1014 | Charter (Factory New) Float and Wear

This finish is float-capped at 0.65, running 0.00–0.65 rather than the full scale, and Factory New sits right at the bottom. Here the tan document pattern reads sharp, the crests and lettering crisp with no scratching over them. For the parchment design at its most legible, Factory New is the grade to reach for.

XM1014 | Charter Rarity

Rarity: Consumer Grade — the gray tier at the very bottom of the standard weapon grades. It's the most common band there is, which keeps this shotgun cheap and easy to pick up.

XM1014 | Charter Case and Collection

Charter belongs to The Control Collection, introduced on December 3, 2020 with Operation Broken Fang. There's no weapon case behind it — copies come from collection drops and the open market rather than case openings, so supply flows through trading.

XM1014 | Charter Patterns

The design is fixed: the Magna Carta document pattern lands the same way on every copy, so the paint seed doesn't change the look and there's no "blue gem" seed to hunt. Wear and float are all that separate one from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This finish exists as a regular version only — there's no StatTrak edition, since no case ever minted a counter for it, and no Souvenir version either. Souvenir weapons are handed out solely through Major-tournament packages, and this finish was never offered in one.

XM1014 | Charter Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Charter ladder as the cleanest grade, so it carries the finish's highest price — though that's still affordable, a budget-to-mid figure by XM1014 standards. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Factory New Charter worth it?

If you want the Magna Carta lettering and crests at their sharpest, yes — Factory New shows the document pattern with no scratching over it. But because the finish is affordable across the board and the busy text pattern hides wear well, most buyers get nearly the same look for less by dropping a grade.

What does the XM1014 Charter look like?

It's a document-themed shotgun — a tan pattern of heraldic crests, handwritten scrawls, and text taken from the Magna Carta, wrapped over the body like aged parchment. The look is scholarly and unusual rather than tactical, giving it a distinctive character among XM1014 finishes.

Which gloves go with Charter?

Its tan, parchment palette pairs naturally with earthy wraps — tan, brown, or sand-colored gloves echo the document tones without clashing. Anything in a warm, neutral range keeps the aged-paper look cohesive, while cool or bright colors tend to fight the finish's muted, scholarly character.
