Gunsmith – AKM is a BEAR task for a suppressed AKM with a Fortis Shift foregrip and black Magpul 30-round magazine. The named parts matter alongside the weapon's recoil, ergonomics and sighting range.

- Mechanic loyalty level 3.
Objectives
- Modify an AKM to comply with the given specifications
Weapon specifications
- 60 Durability
- 400 or less recoil

How to complete the build
Start with an AKM from Prapor LL2 and fit the required magazine, suppressor and Fortis Shift foregrip.
The Fortis Shift can also be obtained through Mechanic's LL1 MPX MQB barter. Treat the remaining attachments as a way to meet the finished weapon's stat checks.
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.
