AWP (Desert Hydra) (Minimal Wear)

Covert Souvenir +1.4% · 8 d-6.4% · 28 d

Desert Hydra sets gold serpents crawling up toward the muzzle of the AWP, with the scope, barrel, and stock painted white to frame them. The clean white-and-gold split makes it one of the more striking and scarce takes on the bolt-action rifle.
