“Gunsmith - P226R” is a Mechanic task in Escape from Tarkov. Requires level 20. Reward: 28,000 XP. Objectives: Modify a P226R to comply with the given specifications. Required for the Kappa container. Walkthrough, map and requirements.

Mechanic — briefing

I have two neural networks, one scans the faces on the cameras and compares them with the database, and the other one monitors cryptocurrency trading and reacts to it. Today I’ve decided to create one more, which will monitor the temperature, humidity, pressure, and other parameters of my hideout, and among other things — respond to my mood. Let's see how it turns out when I’m done. There is an order for AKS-74N with Zenit parts. Ergonomics should be over 65, recoil sum less than 275, and the gun should be taking up no more than 10 slots. Now for the most important part — the kit itself. We need a B-30 handguard, RK-0 foregrip, B-33 dust cover, RK-3 pistol grip, PT-3 stock, Klesch-2IKS illuminator, DTK-1 brake, and the newer AK-12 magazine, basically Zenit all around. Perhaps this is a gift for a former Saint Petersburg resident.

Objectives

• Modify a P226R to comply with the given specifications

Tactical notes

• WHERE TO GO: nowhere. The gun is built at the hideout workbench — no raid needed; parts are bought from traders and the flea market. The parts list and build screenshots are further down this page.
• The parts list and both in-game build screens are further down this page.
• Unlocks only at trader loyalty: Mechanic to LL3.
• This task is part of the Kappa container chain — do not skip it.

On completion

Mechanic: So, is the Zenit AK ready? Great, leave it on that crate, thank you. You can come over for the next order tomorrow, if you want.
