XM1014 | Heaven Guard (Well-Worn)

The XM1014 | Heaven Guard (Well-Worn) is a Restricted shotgun in a red finish with hydrographic patterning and angel-wing decals, shown in a more weathered state. It's a cheaper route into the winged design for players who don't mind visible wear.

Design

At its core the finish is a red body treated with soft hydrographics and marked by dry-transfer decals of wings, leaning fully into its heavenly theme. It's a community creation from the artist not_from_Heaven, and it carries a dark line: "Sometimes the wings of an angel don't mean salvation."

XM1014 | Heaven Guard (Well-Worn) Float and Wear

Well-Worn sits high on the finish's 0.03–0.50 float scale. Wear is obvious now — scratches and paint thinning across the body and edges — but the red base and winged decals keep the shotgun recognizable. It's a grade for buyers who value price over a pristine surface.

XM1014 | Heaven Guard Rarity

Rarity: Restricted — the purple tier, ranked in the upper-middle of the standard weapon grades, over Mil-Spec and under Classified. Pulling one from a case is genuinely uncommon.

XM1014 | Heaven Guard Case and Collection

Part of The Huntsman Collection, this shotgun drops from the Huntsman Weapon Case that arrived with The Hunt Begins update back in May 2014. As a group the Restricted tier unboxes about 15.98% of the time (the rate is shared across the tier's skins), and with the case long in the past, buyers get most copies on the resale market.

XM1014 | Heaven Guard Patterns

Since the artwork is fixed, the paint seed makes no difference to this skin — the wings and hydrographic patterning appear the same on every copy. No rare or blue-gem seed sits in the pool, so wear grade is the only factor to weigh when picking one out.

StatTrak & Souvenir

You can also find a StatTrak™ version, which brings a confirmed-kill counter along; it's a scarcer, pricier drop from the Huntsman Weapon Case than the plain skin, and that counter is permanent, following the item through every trade or sale without ever getting wiped. A Souvenir version was never made, since Souvenir weapons come only from Major-tournament packages and this finish was never part of one.

XM1014 | Heaven Guard Price

Well-Worn sits near the bottom of the price ladder, below Field-Tested and above only Battle-Scarred — a more affordable route into a premium finish for players who won't pay the higher-grade rate. Available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

How worn does Well-Worn look?

Noticeably. Expect scratches and thinned paint across the shotgun, more than Field-Tested but short of Battle-Scarred's heavy battering. The red base and winged decals keep it recognizable, so it still reads clearly as the Heaven Guard in-game — just used rather than fresh from the case.

Is Well-Worn worth it over Field-Tested?

Only if price is your priority. Field-Tested looks a good deal better for a modest step up in cost, so most buyers prefer it. Well-Worn is the pick when you want this design as cheaply as possible without dropping all the way to the roughest Battle-Scarred grade.

Does the red finish survive the wear?

Yes. Even with the extra weathering, the red base and angel-wing decals remain the dominant features — the bold palette holds up under scuffing. The surface reads as clearly used, but the shotgun is still recognizably the Heaven Guard when you glance at it in-game.
