Trying to Gold all the SMGs, but so far I only have Gold Vector. Everything else, I still need to get 100 headshots. I have one MSMC class, and then a really powerful Overkill class with the MP7 and the Chicom, both with a Reflex sight. Then my Anti-Air/Equipment class is a silenced laser sight PDW with the Stinger missiles.
I think I have about 20 headshots with the Chicom, 45 with the MP7, 50ish with the MSMC, and somewhere around 70 with the PDW. I doubt I have any with the Skorpion since I never use it.
I really like the MP7/Chicom class for playing aggressively in Domination. I've put together a couple solo B caps where I take out 5-6 opponents during the capture, using both weapons. Pretty exciting.
Got the Hail Mary challenge earlier today. Threw a combat axe on Drone from the grassy sniper area with trees all the way across the map and hit a sniper laying on the helicopter pad. Feels good man.
Leveled up 10 times today. 3 away from 6th prestige. Golded my Remington. Easily my fastest gold. Might go for diamond shotties after all.
yeah, I just golded my Remington tonight as well. But when I started, I only needed 1 more bloodthirsty to get it so it didn't take that long. This gun was also my fastest gold gun too.
If you can get used to the PDW it's a beast of a gun. 50 rounds per clip is incredible. Multi kills galore

The Skorpion is still a favorite of mine cause it's quicker kills so it's good for run and gun but if you stare down 2 or more other guys, well good luck.
I don't normally condone shotgun classes, but I've used it when things aren't going my way and once you figure out how to utilize a shotty, it's a beast of a class. Pull out the B23R if you need to make a more ranged kill.
