Mechanic — briefing

I've got an unusual order here. Not one masterpiece as usual, but two works of art. I think you'll manage. The landscape — a Remington Model 700 sniper rifle kitted out entirely in AB Arms, with powerful optics and a suppressor, no exceptions. Ergonomics no lower than 35, total recoil no higher than 500. And it has to be light, with a small magazine. The still life — a Colt M1911 pistol with a Pachmayr grip, an Anarchy Outdoors muzzle brake and any light.

Objectives

• Modify an M700 to comply with the given specifications
• Modify an M1911 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.
• This task is part of the Kappa container chain — do not skip it.
