How to unlock Gold camo for Modern Warfare 3 weapons?

With the release of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, gamers may rejoin their lobbies, grind for new weapons, and progress to mastery. Access to extra items, such as weapon skins, requires the leveling of a firearm. Notably, Gold skin has been one of the most sought-after cosmetic items in Call of Duty. Due to the rarity of these weapon skins, they represent a player's effort and determination to become an expert with that particular firearm.

In the latest entry, Modern Warfare 3, you can master and unlock various firearms to rule the multiplayer in style. This article briefly explains how to get the highly coveted Gold camo in MW3.
