Why it works

The rifle keeps its gilded receiver and burning shroud, and the gloves lighten the set with cream leather and pale snakeskin panels. Light hands under a heavy rifle, which stops the gold from feeling top heavy.

What it costs

With AWP | Sovereign Flame in Minimal Wear and Driver Gloves | King Snake in Field-Tested, the set comes to $330. AWP | Sovereign Flame is 61% of that; in Field-Tested it is $114, which saves $87 and is hard to spot in first person.
