It's been over a week since the official release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and players have been leveling up their weapons while learning about the title's redesigned weapon progression system introduced by Infinity Ward, which requires them to go through Weapon Platforms to unlock certain guns.

However, to unlock viable attachments for HCR 56, players will need to reach its maximum level, 19. To unlock all the attachments for this gun, players are required to level up various other weapons in Modern Warfare 2.
