Master Gunsmith Part 1 in Escape from Tarkov with this expert guide. Learn the exact parts, mods, and steps needed to complete the quest and upgrade your weapon.
Alright, let's get this Gunsmith quest done. This is Part 1, so it's pretty straightforward, but you gotta get the details right. We're aiming to build a specific weapon for the trader, Prapor. If you mess it up, you'll have to start all over, so pay close attention to the requirements.
- 1Get the Base Weapon: You need to start with an AKM 7.62x39 assault rifle. You can buy this from Prapor's trader menu or find it on Scavs.
- 2Install the Muzzle Device: We need to attach a DTK-4M 7.62x39 combi-device. This is a muzzle brake and suppressor combo. Make sure it's the DTK-4M specifically.
- 3Add the Handguard: Next up is the AK tactical handguard. This is a specific type of handguard that allows for attachments.
- 4Mount the Foregrip: On that handguard, you'll need to install an RK-2 Foregrip. This is a vertical foregrip that helps with recoil.
- 5Attach the Tactical Device: Finally, you need to mount a PK-06 reflex sight. This is a small, red-dot sight.
- Make sure you're buying the exact parts listed. Sometimes similar-looking parts won't work. Check the item names carefully in the trader menu or on the Flea Market.
- If you're having trouble finding parts, check the Flea Market. Prices can be high, but it's often faster than searching for them in raid.
- Keep an eye on your weapon's stats. While this quest doesn't have strict stat requirements, it's good practice to see how these mods affect recoil and ergonomics.
Completing this quest will earn you Prapor's favor, some experience, and a nice cash reward. More importantly, it unlocks the next Gunsmith quest, so you're on your way to better gear!
