SSG 08 | Dragonfire

SSG 08 | Dragonfire is the nimble sniper rifle (the Scout). A snarling dragon coils down the length of this bolt-action scout, nostrils venting painted flame across a dark, scaled hydrographic. Reds and oranges flare against shadowed greens, giving the SSG 08 a mythic, fire-breathing menace that wraps from stock to barrel. Its rarity is Covert · Red: Covert (Red) — sits among the top rarities for standard weapons, and these are the priciest skins you'll find on them.

It belongs to the "The Glove Collection" collection and is pulled from the "Glove Case" case. You can grab it in these conditions: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred (float spanning 0–0.5). A StatTrak edition exists, complete with a kill counter, and it carries a higher price than the standard copy. A tournament Souvenir edition is around too, and collectors are especially fond of it. Pricing opens at roughly $18.48 and shifts with the condition.

Getting hold of it: the quickest route is to buy a finished copy on a marketplace (the links and prices sit above), though you can also land one from a case or drop, or swap for it with another player. As an investment it rates as inexpensive and easy to move — a solid pick for kicking off a collection. Before you commit, line the price up across a few platforms, double-check the condition (and the pattern, on skins that carry one), and only buy where escrow protection is in place.
