First, I have no idea how I got this quest. No one else that I know got it, but I did. So yeah, sorry. I'm sure someone on the internet has figured it out, but I'm trying to be totally unspoiled.

Anyway, I was chatting with the gunsmith the other day and he casually told me he'd make me a custom weapon. I was like, WHAAA-? Okay... And thus began his quest.

Step 1: Get 75 kills with a sniper rifle while having a special weapon telemetry active. I tested, and both the old "sniper rifle telemetry" and the new "special weapon telemetry" both worked for this step. I was also able to double down by using the Armsday test weapons and complete both goals at once. It took me a while, but I got it.

Step 2: Talk to the gunsmith.

Step 3: Disassemble rare or legendary sniper rifles for weapon parts (you need 10). I thought this was going to take forever, and then I realized I had some old year 1 snipers I *never* used in my vault. BAM. Two max exp year 1 weapons net 12 weapon parts, so my problem was solved.

Step 4: Talk to the gunsmith.

It's like a hybrid of Patience and Time and Black Hammer. Legendary, but feels exotic, and I love it. Plus it looks sweet and it has a hunter insignia on the stock.
