Nines and AKs

"Shit happens. Seville wrongs Temple, Temple wrongs Grove. Bad blood leads to bad blood. If you read the book, that's the way of the world baby!"

- Big Smoke

Nines and AKs is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl Johnson by Grove Street Families leader and brother Sweet from his home in the Grove Street cul-de-sac in Ganton.

Mission
Carl arrives at Sweet's house, where Sweet, Smoke and Ryder are playing dominoes. Carl asks what type of guns Grove Street Families have at the moment. Ryder tells Carl about the police raiding Grove Street, leaving them with very little firepower. Carl asks what happened to Emmet. Smoke replies by saying that Emmet is a member of the Seville Boulevard Families, who are not so close with Grove Street anymore but still agrees to take Carl to see him. Carl and Smoke get into Smoke's car drive to Emmet's in Willowfield.

On the way, Smoke tells Carl about Seville, Temple Drive Families, and Grove Street Families not getting along. Smoke then tells Carl that he is a leader and to remember him when he gets to the top. They arrive at Emmet's place, where they find him fiddling with a Desert Eagle, which accidentally misfired, spooking Emmet and thinking that someone was shooting at him. He sees Carl and Smoke but does not recognize him at first. Emmet mistakes Carl for Brian, his dead brother, but realizes his error and gives his condolences to Carl about his mother. Smoke tells Emmet that they want to get revenge on the people who did it, and in return, Emmet offers to give them some shooting practice.

Smoke demonstrates how to shoot glass bottles with a 9mm, as Carl does the same thing. Carl is also taught how to aim at a car's fuel tank for quick destruction, with Carl hitting the target, practicing the technique on a Tampa. Afterwards, Emmet praises Carl's accuracy, as Carl and Smoke leave. Carl then drives Smoke back to his house in Idlewood.

After dropping Smoke off, Carl gets a phone call from Sweet. Sweet tells Carl to go check out the Binco clothing store just up the road from Grove Street and get himself some Grove Street colors. Carl goes to the clothing store and buys some green clothing to wear, and then leaves.

Trivia

 * During the first cutscene, the song playing in Sweet's house is "" by Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. This song can also be heard on Radio Los Santos.
 * Sweet mentions that gangsters nowadays carry Macs, weapons which were actually supposed to be included in the game, but were cut. It is likely the quote was made before the Mac-10 was cut.
 * In the PC version of the game, even if the controls are set to "Mouse + Keys" (standard controls configuration), which doesn't have an auto-aim feature, the instructions given to shoot the bottles still display controls only used for auto-aiming.
 * In the cutscene where Carl and Big Smoke meet Emmet, Emmet is seen wearing a red shirt under his green jacket, but in gameplay his shirt is white.
 * When Emmet fires his Desert Eagle, it uses a more realistic special shooting effect. The effect is later shown again in the mission End of the Line.
 * If CJ attacks Big Smoke after him shooting the bottles, he may turn hostile and shoot CJ until CJ dies.
 * Despite what Sweet says in the phone call, the player doesn't actually have to buy any clothes to finish the mission. Instead, they can simply leave after entering the clothes shop.
