How To Get Gunpowder in Escape From Duckov

By Daniel Hidalgo | 2025-10-30 09:16:49
Struggling to find a reliable source of Gunpowder in Escape From Tarkov? While looting military sites and crates is one method, there's a more controlled and efficient way to stockpile this vital resource: by dismantling your own ammunition. This guide will walk you through unlocking the Disassemble Station and turning your unused bullets into a steady supply of Gunpowder for your own custom crafts.

Step 1: Building Your Ammo Dismantling Operation

Before you can start breaking down bullets, you need the right tools. The key is upgrading your Hideout's Workbench to support a dedicated Disassemble Station.Here’s your quick-start checklist to get it up and running:
  • Achieve Workbench Level 2: This is your foundational upgrade and non-negotiable for advanced modules.
  • Access the Advanced Workbench Menu: Once your Level 2 Workbench is operational, open its interface.
  • Select "Add Module": Navigate through the options and find the Disassemble Station.
  • Gather and Install: Fulfill the construction requirements, which typically include a mix of tools, components, and roubles. Confirm the build, and wait for the installation to complete.
  • Pro Tip: Start hoarding common, low-tier pistol ammunition right from the beginning of your wipe. This gives you a ready-made stockpile to feed your new Disassemble Station as soon as it's finished.

    Step 2: Mastering the Art of Ammo Dismantling


    With the Disassemble Station installed, you're ready to become an ammunition recycler. The process is straightforward, but a smart approach willmaximize your efficiency.

    A Smart Dismantling Workflow:

    • Interact with your Advanced Workbench and select the new Disassemble Station module.
    • Choose Your Ammo Type: You'll see a list of compatible ammunition. For beginners, "9x18 mm PMPst gzh" or other common pistol rounds are perfect candidates.
    • Set Your Batch Quantity: We recommend processing ammo in batches of 30. This is a sweet spotthat provides a good yield without occupying your workbench for toolong.
    • Start the Process: Confirm and let the station do its work. You'll exchange your bullets for precious Gunpowder.

    Remember, you can also upgrade the Disassemble Station later to significantly speed up the dismantling time.

    Gunpowder Yield: What to Expect from Your Ammo

    Not all ammunition is created equal when it comes to Gunpowder yield.Here’s a quick reference table to help you decide what to dismantle:

    Ammunition TypeRounds ProcessedApprox. Gunpowder Output
    Standard Pistol Bullets30 Rounds30 Units
    Rifle Cartridges20 Rounds20 Units
    Shotgun Shells10 Rounds15 Units

    Strategic Insight: While common pistol ammo is your bread and butter, don't overlookmid-tier rifle rounds or shotgun shells you wouldn't use in combat. They can sometimes offer a better Gunpowder-to-rouble ratio, making yourrecycling efforts even more profitable.

    By following this guide, you'll transform your Hideout into a personalGunpowder factory, ensuring you never run short when you need to crafthigh-quality ammunition or other essential items. Stop relying on random loot and start taking production into your own hands
