After building your personalized weapon class with preferred attachment combinations, you’re able to test out your build in the game’s Firing Range. Absent from the last few Call of Duty games, this feature in Modern Warfare 2 will let you make fine adjustments to your gun build without having the need to test it in multiplayer matches against real enemies.

Upon purchasing a Weapon Vault, you will unlock all the attachments for that Weapon Platform and it will retain its appearance even if you change its attachments.
