Gauntlet is a heist setup mission in GTA V. In this mission each protagonist has to find one Gauntlet required for the Union Depository Heist. This is a three-part mission and involves all three protagonists. It is the second and final setup mission for the Subtle Approach of The Big Score.
In this mission, Lester sends an email to each of the three protagonists that he needs three modded Gauntlets for the upcoming heist. The players must find and collect the cars, with each protagonist assigned to retrieve a specific vehicle from a different location in the city.
Michael is responsible for picking up a Gauntlet parked at the top of the multistory parking lot in Pillbox Hill, while Trevor must retrieve the second vehicle behind the Vangelico store in Rockford Hills. Finally, Franklin is tasked with collecting a dirty Gauntlet in front of the Templar Hotel in Mission Row, which requires a minimal repair cost of $54.
The players need to buy all the required upgrades for the heist as instructed on-screen before delivering the cars to a lockup nearby. There is no time limit, and players are free to choose when and how to collect the cars, noting that they are not required to steal the specific cars Lester located; any three Gauntlets will suffice.
