AK-47 | Head Shot

Origin Story

The AK-47 | Head Shot, released on February 10, 2023, as part of The Revolution Collection, features a vibrant, graffiti-style custom paint job. Its design is characterized by a "HEAD SHOT GUN" motif layered with other street-art elements and finished with a pearlescent coating. This Covert AK-47 is a high-end item from the Revolution Case, positioning it as a premium choice within the game's economy. The skin's high-contrast, saturated color palette of reds, yellows, and other bright tones on a darker base gives it a distinctive visual presence.

Drop Chance

AK-47 | Head Shot is Covert, a Red-tier skin, the rarest standard drop grade. From the Revolution Case: approximately 0.32% per opening (roughly 1 in 312). The 0.64% Covert tier rate is split across 2 Covert skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~0.03% from the Revolution Case (about 1 in 3,125). 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 ($137.04): The custom painted graffiti and "HEAD SHOT GUN" text are fully intact and sharp, with the pearlescent coating showing its strongest sheen. This is typically treated as the premium, showcase tier for Custom Paint Job Covert AKs.
• Minimal Wear ($77.48): Minor wear begins to appear on sharp edges like the muzzle and front sight, but the graffiti remains crisp and the high-contrast colors vivid. This is often considered a value pick when Factory New carries a large premium.
• Field-Tested ($49.64): Noticeable edge and surface wear appears on key contact points such as the barrel, magazine edges, and receiver corners, making the weapon look clearly used. Scratches and missing paint become visible in normal gameplay.
• Well-Worn ($41.98): Large patches of wear and exposed base material are present on the front and midsection, and graffiti elements may be partially rubbed off in high-contact areas. The weapon loses some color density, and the design's contrast decreases.
• Battle-Scarred ($38.93): Heavy wear and extensive chipping cover the barrel, magazine, and stock, with parts of the graffiti heavily obscured or fragmented. The skin appears much more desaturated and "bare metal," with the custom paint job looking patchy.

Sticker Compatibility

The AK-47 | Head Shot's busy, graffiti-style design with bright reds, yellows, and oranges makes it highly compatible with stickers in those color families. Neutral black, white, or gray stickers can also provide a clean contrast against the vibrant background. Graffiti-style or comic-themed stickers would also complement the skin's street-art aesthetic.
