M4A4 | X-Ray

M4A4 | X-Ray is a CS2 rifle skin for the Counter-Terrorist M4A4, featuring painted mechanical outlines that suggest a view inside the weapon. Charcoal panels contrast with pale silver, icy blue, and muted violet details. Its technical appearance suits players who prefer cool colors and intricate artwork. Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested exteriors are available, alongside StatTrak™ and Souvenir versions.

Description

M4A4 | X-Ray gives the Counter-Terrorist rifle a mechanical, cutaway-inspired appearance in CS2. The weapon itself offers greater accuracy but less damage than its AK-47 counterpart. Its Custom Paint Job finish depicts internal-looking shapes rather than relying on a simple solid color. Detailed artwork extends across the receiver, handguard, magazine, grip, and stock. The restrained palette suits a cool-toned loadout while retaining contrast between the dark body and pale details. Professional players olofmeister, Happy, and mixwell have owned the skin. Standard, StatTrak, and Souvenir versions give buyers different options beyond the exterior alone. When choosing a copy, comparing its float value, version, and inspection image helps match the listing to the desired appearance.

History and Origin

M4A4 | X-Ray debuted in CS:GO on December 18, 2013. Its release accompanied the Winter Offensive update. The eSports 2013 Winter Case introduced the finish as a Covert rifle skin. Valve created the design rather than a community designer. It belongs to The eSports 2013 Winter Collection, which also supports its Trade Up Contract route. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, ending new drops of its case. Existing cases can still be bought and opened, keeping the original acquisition route available. Today, buyers can also obtain the skin through marketplace listings, player trades, or eligible trade-ups.

Finish Style

The Custom Paint Job uses mechanical artwork to suggest an X-ray view through the rifle's body. Charcoal gray and black form the dark base around the illustrated components. Pale silver, icy blue, and muted violet accents spread across the central body and rear furniture. The receiver carries outlines and internal-looking shapes that establish the finish's technical character. Long parallel lines follow the handguard, giving that section a structured appearance. Closely spaced, cartridge-like forms fill the magazine and continue the internal-component theme. The pistol grip is predominantly pale blue-gray, creating a lighter area beneath the receiver. Fine diagonal lines decorate the stock beside a dark triangular opening. The dark barrel and front sight provide a relatively clean frame around the detailed central artwork.

Float Value

M4A4 | X-Ray has a float range of 0.00 to 0.30. Its available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested, with no Well-Worn or Battle-Scarred options. StatTrak and Souvenir versions also exist, but version availability is separate from the cosmetic condition described by the exterior and exact float.

Rarity and Popularity

M4A4 | X-Ray is a Covert rifle skin from The eSports 2013 Winter Collection. Opening the eSports 2013 Winter Case offers a 0.64% chance of obtaining it, about 1 in 156 drops. Professional owners include olofmeister, Happy, and mixwell, although ownership alone does not establish current trading demand.

Why it’s Popular:

• Mechanical X-ray artwork with a restrained, cool-toned palette

• Detailed receiver, magazine, and stock illustrations

• Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested choices

• StatTrak and Souvenir versions for different collecting preferences

Price Range

The live M4A4 | X-Ray price range is $71.00 to $456.57. These bounds cover the whole skin rather than a fixed exterior or version. Exterior, exact float value, and standard, StatTrak, or Souvenir status are useful checks when comparing its CS2 skin price. Available listings include standard and StatTrak copies, with Factory New and Minimal Wear among the choices. Before deciding to buy, compare the asking price with the listing's condition and inspection image rather than treating every copy as interchangeable.

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. Open the eSports 2013 Winter Case

Opening the eSports 2013 Winter Case can yield this finish with a 0.64% chance. The case no longer drops, but existing cases can still be bought and opened. Opening offers a random result rather than a choice of this skin.

3. Trade Up Contracts

A Trade Up Contract using 10 Classified skins from The eSports 2013 Winter Collection can produce 1 Covert skin from that collection. The result is random among its Covert skins, so the X-Ray is possible rather than guaranteed.

4. Buy on the Steam Community Market

M4A4 | X-Ray can be bought on the Steam Community Market by selecting an existing listing. Compare the stated exterior and version, then check the float where available before choosing a copy.

5. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trading offers another route to acquire the X-Ray in exchange for other items. Check the exact skin, exterior, float, and version before agreeing to a trade.

Trading and Investment Considerations

No new eSports 2013 Winter Cases drop, so openings draw on existing case supply. Traders can compare standard and StatTrak listings across available exteriors, while checking Souvenir options separately. Historical price movement and trading volume remain uncertain, so decisions to buy, sell, or trade should follow individual listings rather than assumed momentum.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired case with no new drops

• Covert rarity with limited case-opening odds

• Valve-created design released on December 18, 2013

• Ownership by olofmeister, Happy, and mixwell

The investment outlook is medium-to-good, supported by retired case supply, Covert opening odds, and professional ownership. Its main risk is uncertain future demand, especially since existing cases and Trade Up Contracts can still introduce additional copies.
