What Is the Vaznev-9K is Modern Warfare 2?

The Vaznev-9K is essentially an SMG variant of the Kastov 762, which is technically the AK-47 from previous Call of Duty titles. It combines a super high fire rate with excellent recoil control, and is also no slouch when it comes to its overall damage potential. It’s more of a closer range weapon than its assault rifle counterpart, but delivers where it counts: high damage at close to mid range.

  • Rank up the Kastov 762 to level 10 to unlock the Kastov 545. To rank up the gun as fast as you can, you’ll want to get as many kills as you can during your multiplayer sessions. Next, Rank up the Kastov 545 to level 13 to unlock the Kastov-74U. Then, Rank up the Kastov-74U to level 15 to unlock the Vaznev-9K. Finally, tab over to ‘SMGs’ in the weapon menu and the Vaznev-9K will be ready to use.
