The Custom SMG is Rust's homemade bullet hose — a tier-2 craft that shreds at close range and costs very little to keep skinned. This page lists every Custom SMG skin on sale at Skin.Land with live prices: around 48 finishes from roughly $0.60.

What Are Custom SMG Skins in Rust?

An SMG skin is a Workshop design applied to the Custom SMG. It is cosmetic — damage, recoil, fire rate and magazine size are the same on every finish. Rust has no wear system, so a design is one item at one price.

Best Rust SMG Skins

This is the flattest price curve of any gun category in Rust. Tempered SMG tops it at around $3, with Bone Shaman SMG, HellCore SMG and Blackout SMG all within a few cents of each other near $3.

Dark Flames SMG at about $3, tRUSTy Friend at roughly $2 and Redemption SMG at around $2 fill the middle, and the floor sits near $0.60 with Minicopter SMG, Gingerbread SMG, BrainStorm SMG and Stinger SMG. Nothing here costs more than a coffee. Want the premium submachine gun instead? The MP5 skins go all the way to $390.

How Much Do Rust SMG Skins Cost?

Between roughly $0.60 and $3 — that is the whole category. You could own every Custom SMG skin in the game for less than one mid-tier facemask finish.

Custom SMG Skins FAQ

Do SMG skins change the gun's stats in Rust?

No. Skins are cosmetic — damage, recoil, fire rate, reload and ammo capacity are identical across every Custom SMG finish.

Why are Custom SMG skins so cheap?

Supply is deep and the gun sits in the middle of the tech tree, so demand never concentrates on one design the way it does with the AK or the facemask. The entire category tops out around $3.

What is the best Custom SMG skin?

Tempered SMG at around $3 is the most expensive, and Blackout SMG at roughly $7 is the one that matches the most other gear. At these prices the answer is mostly taste.

Is the Custom SMG the same as the MP5?

No — they are separate weapons. The Custom SMG is the cheaper tier-2 craft and the MP5A4 is the tier-3 one. Skins do not carry between them.

Can I sell SMG skins?

Yes, if tradable. The Rust sell page handles the payout.
