M4A1-S | Dark Water

Origin Story

Day-one loot. Dark Water is classic Arms Deal era – rippling metallic stripes laid over chrome so the rifle shimmers under Source 2 lights. It’s understated, reads clean on stream, and holds value on nostalgia alone.

Drop Chance

Restricted tier split across three items using Valve’s baseline:

Any Dark Water – ≈ 5.33% (≈ 1 in 19)
StatTrak – ≈ 0.533% (≈ 1 in 188)
Non-StatTrak – ≈ 4.79% (≈ 1 in 21)

Skin Condition

Minimal Wear (0.10–0.15) – bright metallic ripple, crisp panel edges, clean magwell.

• Field-Tested (0.15–0.26) – visible scuffs on receiver and handguard; pattern stays readable in motion.

Model

CS:GO legacy asset – Source 2 contrast makes micro-wear show early, which is why lower floats sell quicker.

How to Obtain

Open a CS:GO Weapon Case, or set a Market buy and let a seller meet it. Third-party trades cover you when case supply thins.

Price Range

Live listings trend No Recent Price–No Recent Price. Low-float MW with strong chrome pop and tidy receiver edges commands a premium. FT leans on price as rub and dulling stack.

Visual Theme

Anodized Multicolored aquatic stripes over a chrome base. CS2’s speculars move across the pattern as you strafe, so uninterrupted stripes on the upper receiver and a clean handguard list faster and often at stronger bids.
