How to unlock Forged Camo in MW3

I didn't know that weapons could look so Rubenesque.

However, customization options are a game unto themselves with players having to complete various objectives to unlock every part and camo in the Gunsmith. Some challenges, like the Forged Camo challenge, are stacked upon others. Here’s how to unlock this metallic Thwomp-inspired camo.

Getting the Forged Camo is an involved process as players must unlock the four base camos and then the Gilded Camo before they can start working on the Forged Camo challenge. The Forged Camo challenge also requires players to complete the Gilded Camo challenges for every other weapon in that category (Assault Rifles, SMGs, etc.) in addition to a unique challenge for that weapon.
