How to unlock the Russian Arsenal achievement in PAYDAY 2: CRIMEWAVE EDITION - Definitive Guide

I equipped the Grom Sniper Rifle as my primary, the Tatonka Submachine Gun as my secondary, and the Rezkoye as my melee in my melee.

I bought a contract for Ukrainian Job on Overkill difficulty and immediately ran to the safe on the left and placed a shaped charge on it. I was fortunate that it was the correct safe (50/50) and ran back to the car.

Got the achievement without having to do the escape mission. Took about 45 seconds.

Yes, did you try the workaround? I'd confirm that you did that first, because if you did use the correct weapon it should pop.

I tried a few things in case others have an issue. The workarounds only work if you have a disc copy as this game in on game pass as well; which means it only works if you are online. Luckily, I do have it on disc. I tried what you recommended and it didn't work. Tried doing the mission offline, closing the game, back online, then loaded the game and that worked. Keep Clear of the Windows glitched for me as well, hopefully this works as well.

DcupsofJustice above had a similar problem with this achievement. After our conversation in the comments above you, he/she did eventually get the achievement in May of 2020. I didn't get an update though so I don't know if it popped on its own or if they noticed something they were missing. I would reach out to them, as that's the only other person I've heard from having trouble with it popping.

There is another guide with a different setup by BreakingBear101 that should work just as good. Maybe just trying a different angle with his Four Stores setup will work?

Well, after attempting this method 3 or 4 times I was getting annoyed that achievement wouldn't unlock (surprise surprise...), I was then starting up the other person's guide/method and whilst setting it up the achievement unlocked! I did also load the game offline and that seemed to help. Thanks everyone in comments for the advice!:)

"Tried doing the mission offline, closing the game, back online, then loaded the game and that worked." Works perfectly, I am on the gamepass version 30/01/23

Another glitched achievement. Done this with the AK17 as primary and the rest the same as yours on Stealing Christmas, Ukrainian Job stealth, Ukrainian Job using the drill instead, Ukrainian Job loud, Ukrainian Job loud on Mayhem, Ukrainian Job with the Grom Sniper Rifle; still nothing.

So I've looked at this for a while:

Russian Arsenal has not been reported as buggy by any of us that had issues before. I don't see it mentioned in the forum where all these issues were discussed ([New achievements with June 2017 update issues] glitched achievements).

I'm not saying it's impossible it's bugged, just that you are the first person on TA for it to completely bug for. So I think it's most likely that you're missing something. I don't know what as everything you mentioned sounds right to me, but for example Celsius or Fahrenheit was a glitched achievement that wouldn't work for me even after the workaround. I had tried it tons of times with no luck. Turns out the red dot sight I was using was a specialized sight that didn't count for the achievement at all. It unlocked the first time I tried with just the regular red dot.

As you have 350 hours in the game I'm sure you've seen this already but just in case, this is the workaround in the forum for the glitched achievements (June 2017):

1. Make sure you are out of the game entirely (not running in the background).

2. Go offline in settings

3. Start Payday 2

4. Check your inventory to force an autosave

5. Return to the main menu and Go online with settings

If there isn't anything else PM me and we'll try to get it for you. Maybe if you aren't host it'll unlock.

Off the top of my head all I can think of is maybe having attachments negates the achievement? I'm sure I didn't have any as I hated all these weapons and bought them just for the achievement.

Heist: Four Stores or anything quick
Weapons: Primary: AK17 Rifle Secondary: Tatonka Submachine Gun Melee: Rezkoye
Attachments: Suppressor
Equipment: 2 ECM Jammers recommended
Difficulty: Overkill
Minimum Level Required: Level 42 Minimum

The only weapons from this pack that are required are Primary, Secondary and the melee weapon. Ensure that these are equipped or else the achievement won't unlock.

Load up Four Stores on overkill and use your ECM jammer on the ATM inside of the convenience store. Take the money out and try to get to the back alley without alerting anyone. Wait for the escape vehicle to arrive. You may want to kill a civilian, however I doubt it is necessary, I just did this to ensure that it registered I used the weapons.

If the van is parked across the street, place an ECM Jammer and run straight to it. You should also unlock this achievement upon escape:

This trophy must be done on either Overkill, Mayhem, Death Wish, or Death Sentence difficulty and can be done either solo or in co-op. If done in Co-Op, then only the players who have each weapon slot equipped with a Gage Russian Weapon item will get the trophy. The weapons I used, are as follows:

Primary - Grom Sniper Rifle
Secondary - Tatomka SMG with suppressor
Melae - Rezkoye
Throwable - Frag Grenade

The only weapon I actually used in the mission was the silenced Tatomka. While the Frag isn't part of this specific weapon pack it also isn't part of any other pack, therefore it should be equipped. I typically use a Molotov as a throwable but the trophy initially didn't pop because that item is part of a different DLC, regardless of the fact I never used one in the heist.

I suggest doing the Ukrainian Job so you can earn both this and the Sneaky Beaky Like trophy ate the same time.
