Gunsmith – AKS-74U asks for a compact rifle with a 60-round magazine and the Zenit B-11 handguard. Fold the stock before checking its size; the same assembled rifle can fail the space requirement with the stock extended.
Requirements
- Mechanic loyalty level 1.
Objectives
- Modify an AKS-74U to comply with the given specifications
Weapon specifications
- 60 Durability
- 56 or greater ergonomics
- Less than 550 recoil
- 100 or greater sighting range
- A magazine with a capacity of at least 60
- 3.5 kg or less in weight
- 6 or fewer cells
- AKS-74U Zenit B-11 handguard
How to complete the build
Mechanic sends an AKS-74U when you accept this quest. Build from that rifle rather than buying another one unnecessarily.
Fit the B-11 handguard and 60-round magazine, then balance ergonomics and weight. Check the folded weapon against the 6-cell limit.
Check the complete weapon in the inspection window before handing it over. The quest checkmark can be inconsistent even when a build qualifies, so a missing marker alone does not prove the weapon cannot be submitted.
