Five-SeveN | Candy Apple

The Five-SeveN | Candy Apple is a CS2 Counter-Terrorist pistol skin with a bright red slide and dark frame. Its Solid Color finish suits players who prefer clear color contrast without decorative artwork. Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested copies are available. Buyers can choose standard or Souvenir versions, but there is no StatTrak™ edition.

Description

The Five-SeveN | Candy Apple brings a straightforward red-and-black finish to an accurate, armor-piercing pistol in CS2. The weapon balances its slow reload with a 20-round magazine and forgiving recoil. Its bright slide forms the main visual accent, while the dark lower frame keeps the rest of the silhouette restrained. This makes the finish a natural fit for a red-and-black loadout built around simple color placement. The skin belongs to The Assault Collection. Available copies include standard and Souvenir versions, with exterior and exact float value distinguishing individual listings. A version label describes a different attribute from exterior condition, so a Souvenir copy still needs its own float check. Buyers can compare these details before choosing a pistol skin to equip, collect or trade.

History and Origin

Five-SeveN | Candy Apple was released on August 14, 2013, with the Arms Deal update. It arrived as part of The Assault Collection, which remains its collection identity. Valve created the finish rather than a community designer. That collection connection matters beyond its release history because Trade Up Contracts provide an acquisition route. Consumer Grade inputs from The Assault Collection can produce this Industrial Grade skin, although the outcome is random. Today, buyers can select an existing copy through the Steam Community Market rather than rely on a contract result. Player-to-player trading offers another route to acquiring the item. Current purchases can involve standard or Souvenir versions, so the listing's version should be checked separately from the skin's original release details.

Finish Style

Candy Apple uses the Solid Color finish style, with separate weapon components painted in contrasting colors. Bright red covers the slide from the muzzle end to the rear serrations. The lower frame is dark charcoal gray to black, creating a clear division beneath the red upper section. This darker treatment continues across the trigger guard and grip without introducing another accent color. The barrel opening and sights are also dark, while small metallic highlights appear around the front underside. Fine serrations on the slide add detail within the otherwise solid red surface. A densely textured grip panel provides another visible surface feature, without decorative artwork or a multicolored pattern. The overall character comes from the contrast between painted components and the pistol's existing mechanical details.

Float Value

The float value of Five-SeveN | Candy Apple ranges from 0.00 to 0.30. It is available in Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested, but not Well-Worn or Battle-Scarred. Standard and Souvenir versions exist; buyers should check the version label separately from the exterior and exact float.

Rarity and Popularity

Five-SeveN | Candy Apple has Industrial Grade rarity and belongs to The Assault Collection. Its rarity grade identifies the skin category, while float and exterior describe the cosmetic condition of an individual copy. Professional owners include FalleN, TACO and f0rest, although those associations alone do not establish broader demand or resale speed.

Why it’s Popular:

• Bright red slide with a contrasting dark frame

• Simple styling without decorative artwork

• Souvenir option for version-focused collectors

• Valve-created finish from The Assault Collection

Price Range

The live Five-SeveN | Candy Apple price range is $56.52 to $147.28. These bounds cover the whole skin rather than a fixed exterior or version. Compare each listing's exact float, exterior and standard or Souvenir status when evaluating its CS2 skin price. Start with copies in the desired condition, then compare the other available exteriors if appearance and budget allow. A Souvenir label should be checked as a separate purchase attribute, not treated as proof of better condition or an automatic premium.

How to Obtain

1. Buy Directly through Eneba Skins

One of the fastest and most straightforward options is to purchase skins directly through Eneba Skins. You can browse available CS2 skins, compare prices, and choose the items that best fit your budget.

2. Trade Up Contracts

A Trade Up Contract can exchange 10 Consumer Grade skins from The Assault Collection for 1 Industrial Grade skin from that collection. Candy Apple is a possible result, not a guaranteed one. The outcome is random among the collection's Industrial Grade skins, so this route cannot select a specific result in advance.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy Five-SeveN | Candy Apple through individual listings on the Steam Community Market. Check the exterior, exact float and standard or Souvenir label before selecting a copy that matches the intended condition and version.

4. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trading provides a way to exchange other items for an existing Candy Apple copy. Confirm the exact item name, exterior and version in the trade, and inspect its float before accepting.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Existing market listings provide copies to compare, but they do not establish a supply trend or sustained demand. Professional ownership gives the finish recognizable associations without proving that every copy will sell quickly. When planning to buy, sell or trade, compare equivalent exteriors and versions rather than treating all Candy Apple listings as interchangeable.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Valve provenance and The Assault Collection identity

• Documented ownership by FalleN, TACO and f0rest

• Souvenir availability for version-focused collectors

• Distinct red-and-black Solid Color design

The investment outlook is medium, supported by professional ownership, Valve provenance and an available Souvenir version. These features give collectors reasons to consider the skin, but they do not demonstrate sustained demand or future price growth. The main risk is paying for assumed scarcity when a shrinking supply and reliable resale speed are not established.
