Players would have to spend $2.2 million to purchase the Kosatka submarine via Warstock Cache and Carry in order to obtain the Perico Pistol. Even though they have spent this much, it is not a guarantee that they will be able to get this valuable item. Players may also search for treasure to recover the cost.
The next step is to locate a sleeping guard, and then steal a “Small Key.” Although the location of the key is not known, it could be easily found once they locate the guard. Once they have found the key, players can return to the Heist to find El Rubio’s office. This can be accessed via the basement elevator or by climbing the stairs. It is not difficult to find the stairs but it is highly vulnerable to enemy attack.
El Rubio’s office can be found in the large room with a large desk. To find the Perico Pistol, players would need to open the right-hand drawer. There is no guarantee that the Perico Pistol will be given to players. Only the winner of the golden weapon will get it.
Perico Pistol Upgrades
Players can get the Perico Pistol from Ammu-Nation after they find the gilded pistol. Players can also stockpile ammo at $5 per double round.
