Part 69

Conquer the shooting range challenges in Grand Theft Auto VI! Get gold medals for Hand Guns and SMGs with this expert guide. Learn target patterns and optimal weapon use.

Alright, let's dive into Part 69 of our Grand Theft Auto VI guide, focusing on those tricky shooting range challenges. These are crucial for improving your weapon skills and unlocking some sweet rewards. We'll break down each challenge for Hand Guns and Submachine Guns, so you can snag that Gold medal.

Hand Gun Challenges

First up, Hand Guns. You'll need to pass Hand Gun Challenge 1 to unlock the Micro SMG, and Hand Gun Challenge 2 for the SMG. So, let's get these done!

Challenge 1 (Hand Gun)

Requirements: Pass Hand Gun Challenge 1 to unlock the Micro SMG.

Walkthrough: This challenge is pretty straightforward for passing and getting Gold. You'll have targets that need to be destroyed within forty seconds. The key here is to take your time, zoom in on your target, and aim for the center. Don't rush it; precision is more important than speed for Gold.

Challenge 2 (Hand Gun)

Requirements: Pass Micro SMG Challenge 2.

Walkthrough: This one's a bit trickier with multiple moving targets that disappear quickly. You can pass it with the regular Pistol, but you'll absolutely need the AP Pistol for Gold. It'll take a few tries to learn where the targets pop up and how they move. Once you get the hang of it, focus on moving sideways with the Left Analog Stick to line yourself up with the target. This makes aiming for the center much faster and helps maximize your score. Keep moving and reloading!

Challenge 3 (Hand Gun)

Requirements: None listed, but likely requires passing previous challenges.

Walkthrough: Here, you'll face a single moving target that travels across the range, stops, turns around, and comes back. This pattern repeats until time runs out. Passing is easy, but Gold requires the AP Pistol and moving sideways with the target. The good news is your weapon will auto-reload before the target completes its run, so you won't run out of ammo. Just keep up with it, and you'll be reloaded and ready for the next pass.

Submachine Gun Challenges

Now, let's switch gears to the Submachine Guns (SMGs). You'll need to pass the relevant challenges to unlock specific SMGs.

Micro SMG & SMG Unlocks

Micro SMG: You can buy or find this weapon, or pass Hand Gun Challenge 1.

SMG: You can buy or find this weapon, or pass the Micro SMG Challenge 2.

General SMG Tips

Remember, hitting targets increases your score multiplier up to three times. You get one free miss with automatic weapons, so use it wisely!

Challenge 1 (SMG)

Requirements: None listed, but likely requires passing previous challenges.

Walkthrough: This challenge features five static targets facing away from you. One at a time, a target will turn around briefly, giving you a window to shoot it before it turns back. You have thirty seconds to rack up points. For Gold, use the SMG and really learn the timing and placement of these targets. Aim carefully to get the most points and avoid shooting the back of a target, which will break your multiplier. Use the longer pauses between targets to reload your SMG so you don't run dry mid-burst.

Challenge 2 (SMG)

Requirements: None listed, but likely requires passing previous challenges.

Walkthrough: This one has four targets moving in a staggered pattern. They move from the center to one side, stop, turn around, and head back. You've got twenty-six seconds to get the highest score possible. Again, the SMG is your best bet for Gold. This is similar to Hand Gun Challenge 3: you need to move sideways with the targets. However, focus only on the closest target; ignore the ones behind it. Use the pauses in their movement to reload.
