The Shootist is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti for the Malibu Club in Vice Point, Vice City as an asset mission.

Mission

Tommy Vercetti, having recruited a safe cracker for his planned bank robbery, informs Ken Rosenberg and Cam Jones that he needs somebody who knows how to use a gun. Jones recommends gun runner Phil Cassidy, saying he is the best in the city. Vercetti follows Jones' recommendation and meets Cassidy at a shooting range at the Ammu-Nation store in Downtown.

Vercetti offers Cassidy a place on his team, although Cassidy responds that he would only join if Vercetti can prove himself with firearms. Vercetti then takes part in a shooting range challenge, initially involving Cassidy and an un-named citizen. Vercetti first shoots at three dumies suspended from the ceilings, moving left to right, shooting at the dummy to break parts off. Vercetti then enters a second and third phase where he walks through a series of indoor streets and shoots cardboard frames holding guns in windows and doorways, as well as ones that appear in front of him.

Vercetti, having acquired a total of at least sixty points during the three challenges, successfully persuades Cassidy to join him as his gun man for the bank robbery.

Script

Tommy Vercetti: We need a stick up man. You know one?

Ken Rosenberg: Hey, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. This stuff keeps you sharp, man. WooOOOooo! I could be your stick up man! Stick 'em up! Stick 'em up!

Tommy Vercetti: You ain't a stick up man, you're an idiot! Now get yourself a drink and shut up.

Ken Rosenberg: Hey, get out of my way! Yeh, yeh, yeh - ow ow ow!

Cam Jones: Relax.

Tommy Vercetti: Cam, what do you think?

Cam Jones: Well, the best shooter in this town is a guy named Phil Cassidy.

Tommy Vercetti: Is that so?

Cam Jones: Yeah. A military guy, or he thinks he is. I doubt he was ever in the army, but he certainly knows how to get a hold of guns. He'll be down at the shooting range.

(Tommy meeting Phil at the range)

Tommy Vercetti: You Phil Cassidy?

Phil Cassidy: Why?

Tommy Vercetti: I'm looking for a man who can handle a gun. From this set-up, I'm not too convinced.

Phil Cassidy: Son, I could shoot a fly off your head at 80 feet.

Tommy Vercetti: Oh really?

Phil Cassidy: Yeah, I learnt in the army.

Tommy Vercetti: Fly shooting really popular in the army? Glad I don't pay taxes.

Phil Cassidy: You tryin' to be funny, kid? Ha ha ha ha! Let's shoooot!

(Tommy asking Phil a favor after completing the shooting range challenge)

Tommy Vercetti: So do you wanna do me a favor, and help me put together a job?

Phil Cassidy: Son, after shooting like that, if you asked me to be your wife, I'd say yes!

+[[Tommy Vercetti]], having [[No Escape?|recruited]] a safe cracker for his planned [[El Banco Corrupto Grande|bank]] [[The Job|robbery]], informs [[Ken Rosenberg]] and [[Cam Jones]] that he needs somebody who knows how to use a gun. Jones recommends gun runner [[Phil Cassidy]], saying he is the best in the [[Vice City in GTA III Era|city]].

-===Brief===
+Vercetti offers Cassidy a place on his team, although Cassidy responds that he would only join if Vercetti can prove himself with firearms. Vercetti then takes part in a shooting range challenge, initially involving Cassidy and an un-named citizen. Vercetti first shoots at three dumies suspended from the ceilings, moving left to right, shooting at the dummy to break parts off. Vercetti then enters a second and third phase where he walks through a series of indoor streets and shoots cardboard frames holding guns in windows and doorways, as well as ones that appear in front of him.
-Tommy needs a guy who's good with guns to help him hold off security at a bank job. After Ken Rosenberg (extremely high on coke) suggests himself, [[Cam Jones]] suggests a more reliavle man, the town's best shooter, [[Phil Cassidy]].
-===The Mission===
+Vercetti, having acquired a total of at least sixty points during the three challenges, successfully persuades Cassidy to join him as his gun man for the bank robbery.
-Drive to the Downtown [[Ammu-Nation]] and get in the Shooting Range to meet Phil Cassidy. He will agree to be your shootist if...you can beat him in a shooting contest. The contest has three rounds, one at the shooting range, another in the shootout room and the last one in the shooting corner.
-In the first round, there are three types of targets, the closest is worth one point, the middle one is worth two points and the farthest is worth three points, by this round, try to score at least thirty points, since you will need to score more than 60 points between the three rounds.
+== Script ==
+'''Tommy Vercetti''': We need a stick up man. You know one?
-In the second round there are only two types of targets, both worth one point, the targets look  like [[Catalina]] and [[Miguel]] from [[Grand Theft Auto III]]. Try to score twenty points in this round. In the third and final round, the target function is like the one on round two, only that there are less targets here, so try to score eleven or more points to complete the challenge.
-If you managed to get more than sixty points between the three rounds, then Phil will agree to be your shootsit for the big bank job.
+'''Ken Rosenberg''': Hey, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. This stuff keeps you sharp, man. WooOOOooo! I could be your stick up man! Stick 'em up! Stick 'em up!
