How to unlock the MX9 in Modern Warfare 2
In order to unlock the MX9, you need to complete the following steps:
Reaching Rank 41 is a high entry requirement in itself, so be sure to check out our guide tolevelling up fast in Modern Warfare 2to help you speed through the process. Remember too that working through a weapon platform requires you to take the specific gun you need to level up into multiplayer matches in order to gain sufficient proficiency to rank up with it: in this case, that means sticking with the STB 556.
The Bruen Bullpup weapon platform is a very small unlock tree, and there’s nothing else to work towards on this particular branch once you’ve got the MX9. However, if you persist with levelling up the STB 556, you’ll eventually find yourself in possession of theHCR 56as well.
If you’re curious about the base gun in the Bruen Bullpup platform you’ll be using as you work towards unlocking the MX9, be sure to check out our guide to thebest STB 556 loadout, and our list of thebest assult rifles in MW2to see how it stacks up (spoiler: it’s a very good one).
