Phil Cassidy
Phil Cassidy's first job: ambush a Mesa convoy carrying military hardware on the Vice Beach boardwalk and clear all rivals — Tommy delivers each rig back to Phil's depot.
Gun Runner is the first mission in given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by arms dealer Phil Cassidy from his depot in Little Haiti, Vice City.
After the successful bank heist, Phil phones Tommy saying he can receive some extra weaponry. He goes over to his depot to find Phil, who, having just accidentally exposed one of his boomshine stills to an open flame, comes running around the corner and screams at Tommy to run. They barely flee to a safe distance when the detonation of the still destroys Phil's Walton. Phil tells Tommy about a Mexican arms dealer named Pedro Garcia who is doing his weekly run. Phil then asks Tommy to steal the weapons shipment. Tommy rams the gun runners' trucks until the weapon crates fall out, smashes the crates, collects the weapons (a .357/Colt Python, SPAS 12, M60, and Mac 10) and finally kill all the gun runners in the trucks while being pursued by many Faggio-riding backup, completing the mission.
