How to get MW3 Armory Unlock weapons

To unlock Armory Unlock weapons in MW3, you’ll have to reach Level 25, pick the weapon you want to get, and complete the required amount of Daily Challenges. Winning matches counts as Daily Challenges too, so you don’t have to complete the three objectives to progress.

The required number of wins and Daily Challenges varies between two and eight, so be sure to verify the exact amount before starting the challenge.

MW3 Armory Unlock menu
The Armory Unlocks allow you to pick which weapon and in-game you want to get first.

You can also unlock weaponry by exfilling with them in Zombies, so if you’d rather skip the Armory Unlock system, you do have this option to unlock guns as well.

Once you have the guns you want unlocked, make sure you also have the best controller settings and audio setup to hear and react to your enemies’ moves efficiently.
