Johnny’s gun is one of the most iconic weapons in Cyberpunk 2077, but you can only get it through a specific side job later in the story. This guide explains how to unlock Chippin’ In, where to find the Malorian Arms 3516, and what to do with Grayson.

Unlock Chippin’ In
Johnny’s gun is unlocked during the side job Chippin’ In. This quest becomes available later in the story after you complete enough main missions connected to Johnny.
When the quest appears, follow Johnny’s request and meet Rogue at the Afterlife. This starts the mission that leads to Johnny’s old gear.
Play Through the Mission
During Chippin’ In, you and Rogue will go after Adam Smasher’s trail. Keep following the quest objectives until you reach the Ebunike ship area.
You will fight through enemies and eventually face Grayson. This is the character who has Johnny’s gun.
Take the Malorian Arms 3516
After defeating Grayson, pick up the Malorian Arms 3516 from him. This is Johnny Silverhand’s iconic pistol.
Make sure you loot it before leaving the area. It is one of the most memorable Iconic weapons in the game and can be upgraded like other Iconic weapons.
Should You Spare Grayson?
After you get the gun, you can choose whether to spare or kill Grayson. This choice does not stop you from getting Johnny’s gun.
Sparing him can help you get information connected to another Johnny reward, so it is usually worth hearing him out before deciding what to do.
Why Johnny’s Gun Is Worth Getting
The Malorian Arms 3516 is a powerful Iconic pistol with a unique style and strong damage. It is especially worth using if you like pistols or want to collect Johnny Silverhand’s gear.
Even if it is not part of your main build, it is still one of the coolest weapons to keep because of its connection to Johnny.
