"Dawud, one of the Tower survivors, wants to get his family out of the slums, but he needs a gun so he can reach the exit point. In return, he's offered me the key to his pawn shop. That could be a bounty."
Quest introduction

Gunslinger is a side quest available in Dying Light.[1]

Objectives[]

Objective icon
Find Dawud a gun
I gave Dawud a gun, and now I've got the keys to his pawnshop. Hope it was worth the trouble. Also, need to find a Ray McCall action figure for Dawud's kid.

Objective icon
Search Dawud's pawnshop for Ray McCall figure
I've got the doll. Now I just need to bring it back to Dawud's kid.

Objective icon
Bring the doll to Dawud
Something's gone wrong. Dawud grabbed his son and fled the Tower. Apparently, he shot someone on the way out. I wonder if this doll hunt was just a diversion to get me out of the way.

Objective icon
Return to the Tower and find out what happened
Dawud was gone when I came back. He's abandoned his wife, kidnapped his son, and apparently escaped from the Slums. And I'm at least partly to blame. I've promised Salma to get her son back. But I have no leads to pursue Dawud, so I'll have to let this go for now. It's a small city. Sooner or later, I'll find a lead.

Walkthrough[]

While walking around the Tower, Crane will come across Dawud standing in the doorway of appartment 203, the recreation room. Dawud will talk about how he wishes to escape the slums and go somewhere safer, but in order to do so, he needs a gun. He offers Crane a key which grants access to his former workshop in the slums if he is able to provide him with a gun.

Guns are difficult to obtain in the early game, though they can on rare occassions be found in the trunks of police vehicles. A German 9mm pistol can also be found in a house in the southern region of town along the bay region. After obtaining a gun and bringing it to him, Dawud will provide the key and requests Crane to get an action figure for his son while getting his reward in the workshop.

"Attention everyone. This is Brecken. If anyone sees Dawud, get him back to the Tower ASAP! He's got a gun, I repeat: he's got a GUN. He winged a guard on his way out.
Brecken"

While making his way back to the Tower, Crane hears through his radio a message from Brecken, broadcasting a warning about Dawud being armed and having to be returned to the Tower. Go up the elevator and talk to Salma, the wife of Dawud. She will say that Dawud has taken their son, Sammy and abandoned her. Crane promises to get her son back, one way or another. This completes the quest.

Some time after reaching Old Town Dawud will be heard over the radio saying that he's been bitten and will request someone to save his child. After finding the child he'll be returned to The Tower, where a reward can be collected from Dawud's wife, Salma.

Trivia[]

  • This mission is a reference to another Techland series called Call of Juarez
    • The mission name is in reference to the 2013 game Call of Juarez: Gunslinger
    • The action figure Dawud asks the player to collect is of Ray McCall, the main character of Call of Juarez and deuteragonist of its 2009 prequel Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood.
    • Be very careful when giving Dawud the gun, because any pistol in your inventory will be taken. This includes the Last Wish, and other high level weapons.
