I'm saying the Ballas have brains, Carl, they watch the news. I'm saying they're making friends, cutting deals, and tooling up for more than half-assed drive-bys. Lots of cheap guns coming into America since the fall of the wall, Carl.

Gray Imports is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl Johnson by C.R.A.S.H. officers Frank Tenpenny, Eddie Pulaski and Jimmy Hernandez from the Jim's Sticky Ring doughnut shop in Market, Los Santos, San Andreas.

Mission[]

Carl goes to the Ocean Docks Freight Depot, where the Ballas and Russians are having a deal. He needs to get in the office where the deal is taking place, so he fights through the Russians, all armed with SMGs and Pistols, enters the warehouse by destroying the keypad, and fights through more Russians and Ballas on the way to the office. He finds the office, where two Ballas and the dealer are waiting for him. He kills the Ballas and follows the dealer, who runs outside, past many more Russians, and heads for a Banshee. Carl chases him on a PCJ-600 and kills him.

Mission Objectives[]

In order to complete the mission the player must:

  • Go to the docks where the Ballas and the Russians are making a deal.
  • The Russians and the Ballas are having a meeting inside the warehouse.
  • You will have to find some way inside.
  • The meeting is taking place in the office at the back.
  • Take out the Russian arms dealer inside the office!
  • Kill the dealer.

Deaths[]

Reward[]

There is no reward for this mission, but the mission Reuniting the Families is unlocked.

Transcript
When CJ arrives at the donut shop, he finds C.R.A.S.H. exiting the shop and tries to escape.
Pulaski: Carl!
CJ: Damn!
Pulaski: (catches CJ from escaping) Where you off to?
CJ: Shit!
Tenpenny: Where you running off to, Carl, I thought we were friends.
CJ: Yeah, whatever.
Tenpenny: As an officer in charge of putting an end to gang violence, I find myself in a difficult moral position, Carl.
CJ: Yeah right.
Tenpenny: Carl, I'm hurt, I truly am. And just as I was about to help those poor Grove Street boys.
CJ: Oh yeah? How?
Tenpenny: I like the status quo, Carl. I like having all you bastards doing my job for me - blowing each other's guts all over the sidewalk.
CJ: Dumb bastards?
Tenpenny: Now, if it's brought to my attention that one tribe gets an unfair advantage over another, that truly troubles me, Carl.
CJ: So what you saying, man?
Tenpenny: I'm saying the Ballas have brains, Carl, they watch the news. I'm saying they're making friends, cutting deals, and tooling up for more than half-assed drive-by's. Lots of cheap guns coming into America since the fall of the wall, Carl.
CJ: Man, cut that bullshit, Tenpenny - just say what you mean, man.
Tenpenny: Go check out a busy freight warehouse down the docklands and you'll see what I mean, Carl.
CJ: Yeah, OK.
Pulaski: Y'all take care, now!
CJ: For sure.
(If CJ was spotted by the Russian arms dealer.
Russian arms dealer: Stop, we could do business!
Russian arms dealer: Fuck you, amerikanskiy! I'm gone!
Russian arms dealer: Doing business in America is dangerous!
The Russian makes a run for it, enters Banshee if Carl is not fast enough to kill while the dealer is on foot, then destroys the Banshee killing him instantly.)

Trivia[]

  • During the mission, a Russian goon calls Carl Johnson "Amerikansky", but this is incorrect. In Russian, "American" and "American man" are different words, so the right variant would be "Amerikanets". Also, the Russian derogatory word is "Amerikashka". "Amerykański", is, however a correct adjective in Polish.
  • The dealer has much higher health than normal, as he takes almost 5 times more hits compared to a standard NPC. The dealer cannot also be decapitated even by weapons like Assault Rifles or Shotguns.
  • If the player kills the dealer before he reaches the Banshee and is still far away from it, all the guards shooting at them will disappear.
  • The dealer's Banshee is explosion-proof after he enters it to escape.
  • Also killing the dealer outside the Banshee will give a chance for Carl to collect some money from him.
  • If the player shoots the hooks holding the bunch of crates above the workers inside the warehouse, the crates will fall on them, killing them.
  • The mission is similar to the first part of a chapter in Max Payne, With Rats and Oily Water, where Max also has to kill many Russians in a warehouse by the docks.
  • If Carl follows the dealer in his Banshee for longer, he will ride out to Red County.
  • During this mission, the player can turn their car Fireproof/Explosion Proof by going into the red marker while still in the car. Note that if a vehicle with special abilities (FP/EP are exceptions) is driven into the marker, it will lose its qualities and pick up the new ones.
  • The interior of the warehouse looks very similar to two unused warehouse interiors (them being in the Hidden Interiors Universe). They both have the same layout and the upper floors are the same. However, the unused warehouses are very unfinished (especially the first one) and neither of them have the details (containers, barrels, ect.) like the warehouse in the mission does. Both can be entered using the Ganton Gym glitch.
