The Gunsmith has received a massive update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. It is called Gunsmith 2.0. The development team wanted players to feel as if they were in an actual gunsmithing workshop, changing the interface, improving the look of the layout and aesthetics, and giving players plenty of customization for their weapons. Gunsmith 2.0 will be available in the MW2 Beta. Here’s what you need to know about how to unlock Gunsmith 2.0 in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Beta.
How to get Gunsmith 2.0 in MW2 Beta
The Gunsmith 2.0 will appear when Custom Loadouts become available when you reach level four. You can do this after several Multiplayer matches, which means you will want to jump into the game and work through Quick Play, Prisoner Rescue, or Knock Out. Playing one of these three modes will level up your progression, and you can begin customizing your loadouts when you reach this point.

How Gunsmith 2.0 works in MW2 Beta
The Gunsmith 2.0 location will be where you customize every weapon you use in Modern Warfare 2. You can change the weapon’s appearance and attachments, and you can view the stats before taking it into combat. You will want to visit this location often as you level up a weapon, changing the various attachments for better choices and improvements.
You can find the Gunsmite 2.0 section underneath the Multiplayer Loadout option, underneath the Weapons Tab in the Multiplayer menu.
Click on the Multiplayer Loadout option, select the Customize Loadout slot, and click the Gunsmith option when hovering over the weapon. This enables the Gunsmith 2.0 experience, giving you access to your weapon’s customization and attachment options.
When MW2 fully releases, we can expect much more customization and choices available to everyone. In addition, more weapons will arrive as MW2 grows larger and the various seasons begin to release.
