Unlocking a specific weapon in CoD Modern Warfare 2 is sometimes quite a hassle. In the worst case, you have to work your way through the entire platform to access the desired gun. However, the new game mode DMZ now lets you use a shortcut, thanks to which you can get new guns pretty quickly.
Incidentally, new weapons and more can also be unlocked in the new Battle Pass. A video shows you how it works:

This is how you unlock weapons quickly
In a detailed blog post about the start of Warzone 2 and DMZ there is a note that attentive readers soon discovered:
Extracting yourself from DMZ with a Contraband weapon unlocks it in all other game modes. […] All weapons found in DMZ are considered contraband weapons. This includes weapons that can be found on Operators or Fighters, or that can be loosely looted in the world and in containers.
Here’s how the trick works: So if you happen to find a weapon that you haven’t unlocked yet and make it out of the match alive, you can use it in multiplayer from now on. However, it is also possible to specifically unlock new weapons if one of your squad colleagues can already use them.
It’s even faster that way: To do this, your teammate simply has to equip the desired weapon in the next DMZ match and then drop it for you. You pick them up and run to the next possible extraction point. You can now clean up in multiplayer with the new shooting iron!
Incidentally, this trick can also be used with the new M13 B assault rifle, as you can unlock it for the first time in our guide:
