I’m continuing the Gunsmith series updates, and now we’re on Gunsmith. Part 7. This one is all about building a properly kitted M4A1 that still hits strict stat requirements – and yes, the weight limit is the part that usually trips people up. If you don’t wanna go into details, check the image below:
Below is the quest dialogue, followed by the exact requirements and a clean list of attachments you can use to get it done fast.
Gunsmith. Part 7 Description
Dialogue
Sometimes I think it’s good that I got stuck here in Tarkov. The whole world feels like it’s descending into an abyss, a gaping, cold abyss. Everything has lost its meaning. People, their values, their thoughts, and their goals. They don’t know anymore why they should take joy, work, have children. Everyone is tired from the illusion of choice they were offered all this time, from having to work and buy either blue or red cigarettes. It’s happening everywhere, in every corner of the world. But here in Tarkov, we are honest with ourselves. We see it all in an already exaggerated way, without false values, when you don’t just decide what laundry detergent is better at removing stains, but how to keep warm at night and where to find ammo to deal with the next lowlife who wants to kill you. Only in such an honest society, people show their true selves. What do you think? Okay, thanks for hearing me out. Some folks requested a fully packed M4. They need a silencer, 60-round extended mag, ergonomics above 47, and recoil sum less than 300. And mind the weight, no more than 3.8 kg, with a sighting range of 800 or beyond.
