R8 Revolver | Junk Yard

Origin Story

The R8 Revolver | Junk Yard emerged on May 3, 2021, as part of The Snakebite Collection, released alongside The End of Broken Fang update. This visual combination gives the revolver a distinctive, hand-modified appearance. While not a high-status item, it functions as a functional piece for collection completion or for enthusiasts of the R8 Revolver.

Drop Chance

R8 Revolver | Junk Yard is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. From the Snakebite Case: approximately 11.42% per opening (roughly 1 in 9). The 79.92% Mil-Spec tier rate is split across 7 Mil-Spec skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~1.14% from the Snakebite Case (about 1 in 88). These per-skin odds assume equal weighting within tier — Valve publishes tier rates but doesn't formally confirm even distribution across skins in a tier.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 1. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New (No Recent Price): The blue base is fully saturated, the silver handwriting and drawings are crisp and intact, and the red cylinder and front sight are clean and uniform.
• Minimal Wear (No Recent Price): The design remains very close to Factory New, with nearly full color vibrancy, though minor wear may appear on sharp edges of the barrel and cylinder.
• Field-Tested (No Recent Price): Noticeable edge wear appears on the barrel, cylinder edges, and frame corners, with some fading in the blue base and the red cylinder showing minor loss of pristine uniformity.
• Well-Worn (No Recent Price): The blue coating shows broader patches of fading and scratching, especially along the top of the barrel, cylinder, and grip edges, while silver markings can become partially worn away.
• Battle-Scarred (No Recent Price): Extensive surface wear is present, with large faded or chipped areas of the blue base, significantly degraded silver handwriting, and a faded red cylinder and sight.
