The Gunsmith mission can be said to be the easiest way to earn XP after reaching the level of the flea market. After completion, they will give you a good upgrade to a new level.
Some players will avoid these tasks because they will pay a lot for the necessary parts, but I want to point out that in most cases, mechanics will pay a high price for these tasks.
In the long run, you can get thousands of XP and upgrade your mechanics for just a few hundred thousand rubles-this is basically a good Scav reserve.
Just like in the earlier guides in parts 1-5, we will use a different method from the main method on the Tarkov wiki so that you can complete these tasks as cheaply as possible.
So let's jump straight back to where we left off in the previous guide.
You must be level 18 to start this mission.
-Remington R11 RSASS 7.62x51 marksman rifle-Peacekeeper LL3
-SilencerCo Hybrid 46 multi-caliber silencer-Mechanic LL2, Peacekeeper LL3
-SilencerCo Hybrid 46 Direct Thread Mounting Adapter-Peacekeeper, Mechanic LL2
-Magpul M-LOK AFG Tactical Grip-Skier & Peacekeeper LL3
-EOTech Vudu 1-6x24 Rifle Scope-Jaeger LL3
-30 mm scope bracket-Jaeger LL2
-Colt buffer tube-Peacekeeper, Skier LL2
-Magpul MOE Carbine butt-Skier, Peacekeeper LL3
First replace the default stock with MOE Carbine stock and put it in. At the same time add the colt bugger tube. Place the scope on the 33mm ring, and then place it on the gun. Take out the existing broken muzzle and place it in the direct thread mount. Add the AFG tactical grip and silencer, and you're done.
After completing this task, you will receive 2 physical bitcoins as a reward, which can be sold at a high price on the flea market.
R11 RSASS is a good alternative to the popular M1A
Part 7 is unlocked at level 18, so you can do it immediately after Part 6. For this, you will need the following parts:
-Remington Model 870 12ga Pump Action Shotgun-Skier LL2
-Remington Tactical Choke 12ga-Skier LL2
-M870 Magpul MOE Handguard-Machinist LL2
-Magpul M-LOK 4.1 inch rail-Mechanic LL2
-Magpul M-LOK 2.5 inch rail-Mechanic LL3
-NcSTAR Tactical Blue Laser LAM Module-Skier LL1
-KAC vertical pistol grip-Peacekeeper LL1
-M870 Magpul SGA polymer inventory-Mechanic LL3
First replace the old stock and handguards with new ones. Add 2.5 and 4.1 rails before adding KAC vertical grips. Finally add choke and laser. The reward for submitting this task is about 100.000 rubles, which means that you may end up earning some money through this task.
You will also get Glock, which you can use for Stirrup quests.
I recommend the Strittup mission in the factory, because unlike other maps, most people who enter will not be armed to the teeth. Generally speaking, a pistol is very powerful for your opponent in one blow.
Part 8 is unlocked at level 19 and requires you to purchase a lot of items. But don't worry, you will get your money back, because the reward is two bitcoins and they sell well in the flea market. The shopping list is:
-AKM 7.62x39 assault rifle-Prapor LL1
-AK AKademia Bastion dust cover-Skier LL1
-Main weapon compact prism range 2.5x-Skier LL2
-Compact mounting adapter for sight-Skier LL2
-Fortis Shift Tactical Grip-Peacekeeper LL3
-AK-74 polymer stock (6P20 Sb.7)-Prapor LL1
-AK GP-25 accessory kit recoil pad-Prapor LL2
-SilencerCo Hybrid 46 Direct Thread Mounting Adapter-Machinist, Peacekeeper LL2
-SilencerCo Hybrid 46 multi-caliber silencer-Peacekeeper LL2
-AK Zenit RK-3 pistol grip-Skier LL3
-AK 7.62x39 Magpul PMAG 30 GEN M3 30 rounds magazine-Peacekeeper LL2
-AK CAA RS47 hand guard-Peacekeeper LL2
The same drill bit as before: replace the butt and handle, add a cushion. Remove the existing dust cover and scope, replace it with a new one, and install the scope.
Remove the handle, but keep the air pipe open, and then put the CAA RS47 front handle and the Fortis shift handle together. Finally, remove the muzzle brake and place the adapter + silencer, replace the magazine and get bitcoin.
I recommend saving this gun in the weapon presets because it is a powerful weapon for close encounters.
Part 9 is unlocked at level 20, and the shopping list is smaller than the previous one. You really need to get:
-AKS-74N 5.45x39 assault rifle-Prapor LL2
-AKS-74/AKS-74U Zenit PT lock-Skier LL2
-AK Zenit DTK-1 7.62x39 & 5.45x39 muzzle brake and compensator-Skier LL2
-AK Zenit RK-3 pistol grip-Skier LL3
-AK Zenit PT-3 "Klassika" buttstock-Skier LL3
-AK Zenit B-33 dust cover-Skier LL3
-AK Zenit B-10M handguard with B-19 upper handguard support-Skier LL3
-AK Zenit DTK-1 7.62x39 & 5.45x39 muzzle brake and compensator-Skier LL2
This task will not reward you rubles but Euros. You will also get the Colt M4A1 5.56x45 assault rifle, which you can convert into a killing machine.
The Colt M4A1 can be modified in a variety of ways to suit each map
This part is unlocked at level 20, just like part 19, so they can be completed one by one. As with every part, there are multiple ways to modify this gun, but this is the cheapest we found:
-AK-105 5.45x39 assault rifle-Prapor LL3
-Compact mounting adapter for sight-Skier LL2
-AK Zenit B-10M handguard with B-19 upper handguard support-Skier LL3
-Main weapon compact prism range 2.5x-Skier LL2
-AK Zenit RK-3 pistol grip-Skier LL3
-KAC vertical grip-Peacekeeper LL1
-AK Zenit B-33 dust cover-Skier LL3
-SilencerCo Hybrid 46 Direct Thread Mounting Adapter-Machinist, Peacekeeper LL2
-SilencerCo Hybrid 46 multi-caliber silencer-Peacekeeper LL2
-AK-74 5.45x39 6L31 60 rounds magazine-Prapor LL2
Use the RK-3 handle instead of the default handle. Remove the dust cover, handguard, muzzle brake and rails, and then drag everything else onto the gun. Make sure you have enough storage space, because the silencer will increase the length of the gun.
That's it for Gunsmith's Mission Part 6-10. When Battlestate Games changes the gun statistics, we will try to update the list.
Some of the guns on this list are very good, and you might want to try them in a raid.
I suggest you modify those you like to suit your game style and the type of map you play most often.
