Escape From Tarkov Shooting Cans Mission Guide

Published Date :

Shooting Cans is one of the simplest and not easy missions in Escape from Tarkov. Consider this mission as a tutorial for surviving on the Ground Zero map. To complete it successfully you have to complete three objectives that include finding an Utyos Machine Gun, AGS Grenade Launcher, and killing 5 enemies. While it is quite easy to kill 5 enemies, finding the guns are not. And that is why we are here to help you through it.

We will mention the locations of both the Utyos Machine Gun and the AGS Grenade Launcher in the Shooting Cans mission of Escape from Tarkov. So if you are up for some adventure, this is the right time to get started.

How to Complete the Shooting Cans Mission in Escape from Tarkov

Before you start hunting down 5 enemies, which is one of the objectives of the Shooting Cans, I suggest you find the guns first. I mean, it will be great if you finish the difficult job first. With that said, here are the locations of the weapons you are looking for:

The Utyos Machine Gun is found on the 3rd floor of the Empire Building (Tarbank). To reach there, you will have to take stairs but make sure you are carrying some healing with yourself. As the stairs will be occupied by some barbed wires.

Now for this weapon, you will have to go to the Capital Insight building’s 3rd floor. Since the left part of the building is blocked, you will have to walk your way up using the escalator on the right side.

AGS Grenade Launcher Location in Shooting Cans

Upon reaching the third floor, you will find the AGS Grenade launcher in one of the rooms on the left side.

After finding both of these weapons, you can simply go down the streets and kill 5 enemies to complete the Shooting Cans mission in Escape from Tarkov.
