SSG 08 | Red Stone

Origin Story

The SSG 08 | Red Stone, released in 2019 as part of Operation Shattered Web, hails from The Norse Collection. Its design features an olive grip contrasted with a maroon slide, creating a clean and understated rifle. This solid-color finish gives it a utilitarian aesthetic that is distinct from more elaborate designs. As a low-rarity item from a legacy map collection, it serves as a thematic filler for Norse-themed loadouts.

Drop Chance

SSG 08 | Red Stone is Consumer Grade, the most common drop tier in CS2. It can drop as an end-of-match reward from active competitive play on the Norse Collection item pool. Map drops follow a weighted rarity system that heavily favors common grades, so Consumer Grade drops are uncommon and Valve doesn't publish per-skin odds. There are 4 other Consumer Grade skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. Most copies enter the market through trade-up contracts or direct purchase at a listed seller's price.

Skin Condition

Float range 0.06 to 0.5. Exteriors: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Minimal Wear ($11.40): The maroon body and olive grip retain strong color, with only micro-scratches appearing on sharp edges of the barrel or scope at the higher end of this float range.
• Field-Tested ($9.96): Noticeable but moderate wear appears on high-contact edges of the barrel, muzzle, and scope housing, with the maroon and olive colors remaining distinct.
• Well-Worn ($11.70): Heavier scratching is present on the barrel, receiver, and grip edges, revealing more of the underlying metallic layer, and the maroon color may appear slightly duller.
• Battle-Scarred ($13.00): Extensive scratching and chipping cover the maroon body and olive grip, with large portions of the barrel and receiver showing bare metal and colors appearing significantly faded.

Model
