    MetalLlama43I got it to unlock with the bullpup rifle and I was in online mode. I got the extended clip, flashlight, scope, suppressor, grip, and army tint. When I backed out of looking at guns the achievement popped up. I’m not sure if all of those items are needed or not.

    ohGermI tried this with the regular Pistol and the SNS Pistol on Story Mode and the achievement didn’t pop. This might be glitched. Does anyone know another solution?

    KleptoJackI couldn't get this to work in Story Mode at all. Bought multiple weapons with all the upgrades and nothing happened.

    I tried it in Online mode with the Compact Rifle and it popped immediately.

    zoilus68One of the shops was undiscovered for me, and doubly obscured by a big R with its yellow circle around it. The store was right behind the R's startup circle. Here's a useful map: https://guides.gamepressure.com/gtav/guide.asp?ID=22125

    GoatlipsDefinitely glitchy or requires specific upgrades/guns. In story I upgraded a couple of guns and got no achi. I then bought the advance scope for the sniper rifle and got the achi. For some reason I only had the standard scope on it after the Nervous Ron mission (advanced scope cost too much when I played the mission?). Also, it only had the original Black Tint, so you don't have to buy a different tint.
