GTA V Treasure Hunt Guide
If you’re thinking of doing the Doomsday Heist Update’s Treasure Hunt mission, it includes a cute Red Dead double-action revolver. Hunts can be overwhelming, so here are all the GTA V Treasure Hunt clue locations.
Participation in the hunt requires participation in an online session. You will then receive an email (in-game) with one of the locations. Once he finds this, he also needs to track 3 locations. These three will lead you to the most crucial treasure chests. You’ll hear a wind chime when you get close to the right spot. Note that if you exit prematurely, you will have to reboot.

The Three Clues
Unfortunately, the treasure still needs to be found after locating the photo. This is just the beginning of the treasure hunt. You’ll then be presented with three fixed locations to move to on the map, giving clues as to where to find the treasure.
These clues include a corpse, a shovel, and a small locker.
We’ve indicated their locations just below:
- Crate Location: Joad Lane Tree
- Shovel Location: Sandy Shores Beach
- Corpse Location: Tongva Hills Cave
Double Action Revolver Treasure
Finding all three clues in GTA Online will display the following in-game message: ‘The final location of the treasure has been revealed.
Go to a location on the map, and you’ll find families killing each other and leaving treasure chests on the ground. Open the treasure chest to claim your reward: a golden double-action revolver. Finding weapons unlocks new challenges for the player and provides another great reward. Details are below.
How to beat the Double Action Revolver Challenge
Acquire the Gold Double Action Revolver, and you will be awarded the Headshot Challenge.
Doing this will give you an additional reward of GTA$250,000 (directly deposited into your Maze Bank account) and unlock weapons in Red Dead Redemption 2 (if you have a linked Social Club account).
You don’t have to headshot other players. Instead, you can do 50 headshots against NPCs if needed. This makes the process much faster and easier to accomplish. You’ll also get an on-screen notification every ten headshots, so you know how far you need to go.
If you want to check your progress later, you’ll need to navigate the pause menu as follows:
Pause Menu > Stats > Weapons > Double Action Revolvers > Current Headshot count is on the last page.
This has helped you find all the treasure locations you seek. It would be a crying shame not to get all the loot, double-action revolver, and additional money you can receive. Good luck to you all, treasure hunters!
