Instead, you’ll need to use some or all of the tips below to make your way up.

Firstly, don’t activate it until you’re ready to utilize the whole token.

So, if you’re ready to play a whole hour, then activate one of those.

If you’re only on for 30 minutes, play with one of those.

You’ll find your existing tokens in the window underneath the daily challenges in the party lobby.

Another handy point is any XP tokens you’ve earnt in MW2 will carry over.

Play certain Multiplayer game modes

To earn XP, you want a high concentration of kills.

The Multiplayer game modes we’d recommend then are Kill Confirmed, Hardpoint, Domination, and Ground War.

Hardpoint and Domination center around specific objectives and, as such, areas of the map.

As long as you’re quick.

All of which earn you XP.

As always, headshots will get you more XP.

With mass amounts of zombies to shoot down, it’s an excellent way to clock up XP.

This way, you don’t miss out on the XP.

Farm the zombies, farm the XP.

The further into the level tiers, the higher the reward.

Achieving maximum proficiency on your weapon of choice will also give you 10,000 XP.

The higher the level, the closer you are to unlocking that Gold camo reward as level 31.

Complete weapon-related daily challenges

Each day in the lobby, three new daily challenges will appear.

If you spot any specific challenges that are related directly to your weapon, do them.

It’s as simple as that.

The most relevant for this guide being the Double Weapon XP.

The Double XP tokens can be obtained by completing campaign missions.

Luckily, your Double XP tokens will also transfer over to MW3 from MW2.

Play Ground War

Zombies and War Mode aren’t the only great game modes for fast gun leveling.

Ground War is another option we’d recommend due to its increased player count and longer runtime.

There’s just some modes that are better than others.

That’s all our top tips for leveling up weapons fast in Modern Warfare 3.
