MAG-7 fights are decided at arm’s length, and Stone Carving leans into that brawl with a rough, chiseled look—less glossy gunmetal, more ancient wall etching dropped onto a competitive map. The sell is honest: pattern and surface read as stone, not sci-fi lines or chrome. If you want a MAG-7 that stands out in the stash without screaming “flex skin,” this one from Gamma 2 is easy to remember.

Release & pedigree

August 18, 2016 — shipped with the Gamma 2 Case and the Double Exposure update. Years of circulation mean wear tiers are well represented on the market; pricing by float is usually straightforward.

Designer: community creator PTP, a classic Workshop pick that landed cleanly on the MAG-7 silhouette.

Source: open Gamma 2 Weapon Case; collection-wise it sits in the Gamma 2 set with the rest of the case lineup.

What you’re buying

• Rarity: Covert
• Finish: Custom paint job — mimics carved stone pattern and texture
• Float: 0.00–0.44 — Factory New and low Field-Tested often keep the motif readable; toward the top of the range the surface gets grubby and fine lines soften. Always match the float to the inspect you want, not the listing thumbnail.

Arms Dealer Buzz nails the vibe: “Ever since man first learned to pick up a rock, there’s been conflict.” Stone age, conflict, shotguns—dry humor that fits the theme.

Shop take: wear & value

导购结论

• Who it’s for: Entry/rush players who live on MAG-7 one-taps, plus collectors who like cultural motif skins without neon overload.
• Wear strategy: With a 0.44 cap, you’re not chasing impossible low floats on a ancient drop—but FN vs. mid FT still changes how crisp the carving reads on the receiver and barrel junction. Pull up the same float band on C5GAME and Steam Community Market, then inspect in-game: note where abrasion hits first (often edges and grip transitions).
• Budget lane: Covert, not Contraband—room for a themed MAG-7 without eating your whole loadout budget. Theme strength beats sticker soup here; you’re paying for texture, not holo slots.

专家碎碎念

I’d rather see one live inspect than ten price screenshots. Stone Carving wins when the chisel lines still pop on the body; once the “dirt layer” wins, it’s just another brown shotgun. If you main close angles, it’s a story + wear literacy pick—visible narrative, floats you can actually reason about. Skip if you need full-float glitter; buy when the carving still looks like rock, not mud.
