The attackers, who were also black and wore dark clothing, fled in a car towards the North Circular.
The victim was treated in hospital and released, though he has been arrested for firearms offences. He remains in police custody.
One of two men with him was also arrested for firearms offences and has been bailed.
The Trident team, which targets gun crime in Afro-Caribbean communities, are investigating.
