How to unlock the Pimp My Sidearm achievement in Grand Theft Auto V - Definitive Guide
The gun is only $300 to buy, and as it has no proper attachments you only need to buy one tint to unlock it. Cheapest tint is the Army Tint at $100 bringing the total to only $400.
The achievement unlocked after I applied the tint and exited the menu.
This achievement can be easily done after completing the fourth story mission when you gain control of Michael outside the car dealership. At this point in the story, he will have around $7,500.
Make you way to the nearest Ammu-Nation gun store and select the “Standard Handgun” Pistol. Purchase all five upgrades and the achievement will unlock. This will only set you back approximately $3,381 in total:
- Extended Clip - $387
- Flashlight – $472
- Suppressor - $1,822
- Army Tint - $100
- LSPD Tint – $600
Alternatively, if you have a Rockstar Social Club account and your gamertag is linked to it, you will be given a free weapon (Assault SMG) when you start the game. All of the mods for this weapon are also free, so head to an Ammu-Nation store and equip both the SMG and all the attachments in order to unlock the achievement. The SMG can be found on the right side of the wall when browsing through the weapon selection.
- Extended Clip - $387
- Flashlight - $472
- Suppressor - $1822
- Army Tint - $100
- LSPD Tint - $600
[AUTOPOP] If you import an existing character from PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 with which you've already attained this trophy, begin an activity such as a race and you'll unlock the trophy.
