Tarkov Gunsmith Part 6 Mechanic Quest Guide

Following Escape from Tarkov's Gunsmith Part 5, Gunsmith Part 6 focuses on a more intricate weapon build, having players create and equip an AKM to detailed specifications. Players will need Peacekeeper Loyalty level four or Flea market for the Fortis Shift Tactical Foregrip. This build is going to cost around 200k roubles, setting players back quite substantially after completing this task. However, XP is XP, and money spent now is an investment into the future of your Escape from Tarkov account. 

Gunsmith Part 6 releases to players twenty-four hours after completing Gunsmith Part 5, therefore don't be confused if the task hasn't been released to you and you must be above level fourteen to start this quest.

What Do You Need To Do For Gunsmith Part 6

Gunsmith Part 6 will require you to build an AKM matching the following criteria:

• 60 Durability

• 800 or greater sighting range
• A silencer
• Fortis Shift tactical foregrip
• AK 7.62x39 Magpul PMAG 30 GEN M3 30-round magazine (Black)

You are able to purchase the AKM from the Flea market or Prapor Loyalty Level 2. The AKM can be found commonly on PMC players or scavs due to the popularity of the weapon. Additionally, the weapon can be found commonly within weapon crates on every map.

As previously mentioned, this build is rather comprehensive and takes a moment to complete. Despite costing an arm and leg to complete, the task fortunately pays a decent return for the weapon, although, you'll likely break even.
