MP7 | Groundwater (Field-Tested)

The MP7 | Groundwater (Field-Tested, FT) is a Consumer Grade SMG skin in a solid olive drab spray, a Cache map memento. Field-Tested is the most common grade for it, holding onto the earthy look while easing the entry price a bit.

Design

The finish is a straightforward olive drab spray paint job across the weapon's parts, born as a memento tied to the Cache map rather than a decorative graphic. It's a Valve-made design, with an in-game line that fits: "Never take victory for granted."

MP7 | Groundwater (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Float for this finish runs 0.06 to 0.8, putting Field-Tested in the middle. Light scratching becomes visible at this grade, though the flat olive coat hides it reasonably well compared to a glossier finish.

MP7 | Groundwater Rarity

Rarity: Consumer Grade, the base tier among standard weapon grades — though its memento origin makes actual availability much tighter than the label suggests.

MP7 | Groundwater Case and Collection

This finish is part of The Alpha Collection, tied to Cache and dating back to Operation Bravo in September 2013. It's memento-sourced, not obtainable from any current case.

MP7 | Groundwater Patterns

The olive drab spray lands the same on every copy of this finish, so there's no random pattern or "blue gem" seed involved. Only wear and float set copies apart.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This is a regular-only finish with no StatTrak or Souvenir version. Souvenir weapons are exclusive to Major-tournament packages, and this skin was never part of one.

MP7 | Groundwater Price

Field-Tested sits below Minimal Wear (MW) and Factory New (FN) on this finish's price ladder, offering a somewhat more accessible way into a memento that otherwise runs grail-tier. It's still a pricier finish than most MP7 skins even at this grade. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Field-Tested a reasonable way to own the Groundwater?

Yes, if the top-tier price feels steep. Field-Tested keeps the olive drab look mostly intact while trimming cost, making it a more approachable entry point into a memento that's otherwise expensive across the board.

How does memento status affect the Groundwater's price at every grade?

Because supply is fixed and tied to Cache rather than an active case, every grade of this finish — including Field-Tested — sells for more than a typical Consumer Grade skin would, regardless of wear.

Does Field-Tested show much visible wear on the olive finish?

Some light scratching shows up, but the flat, matte olive drab coat hides minor damage better than a shiny or detailed finish would, so it still looks fairly presentable in-game.
