The ACR from Modern Warfare 2 2009 is one of the most popular weapons in Call of Duty history, and thanks to a new blueprint it has made its way to Warzone 2 and MW2 Season 3. Here’s how to recreate the timeless ACR Assault Rifle.

The Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 Season 3 update delivered plenty of new cosmetics with a brand-new Battle Pass and new bundles to explore. One of the bundles delivers a dose of nostalgia for players who have fond memories of Modern Warfare 2 2009.

In fact, it’s now possible to recreate the iconic ACR Assault Rifle in MW2 and Warzone 2 Season 3. To do so, players must purchase the Classic Ghost Pack bundle that features weapon blueprints for the ISO Hemlock and the EBR-14.

The ISO Hemlock weapon blueprint called Loose Ends is an ode to the ACR and players can relive their Modern Warfare 2 glory days in Warzone 2 & MW2.

To build the classic ACR in Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2, you’re going to want to equip the Loose Ends Blueprint for the ISO Hemlock and use the following attachments:

  • Barrel: Series 4-MR
  • Laser: Corio LAZ-44 V3
  • Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
  • Rear Grip: Sakin ZX Grip
  • Stock: Mace 600

In the video above, CoD content creator TheKoreanSavage decides to use the Pro-Tuned attachments that come with the bundle, but players can mix and match attachments to their liking.

However, if you alter the attachments, you run the risk of losing that classic ACR feeling that comes from the weapon blueprint. To maintain the ACR look and feel, we recommend using the above attachments to dominate Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer matches.

The Pro-Tuned attachments above turn the ISO Hemlock into a dominant medium to long-range Assault Rifle that’s perfect for Ashika Island. With improved accuracy, recoil control, and handling, the ISO Hemlock transformation into the ACR is complete.

While the Loose Ends blueprint alters the feel of the ISO Hemlock to resemble the ACR, you can attempt to recreate the ACR without purchasing the bundle.

It likely won’t produce the same effect as the blueprint, but equipping the above attachments on the ISO Hemlock in a Warzone 2 match could be a fun experiment. Perhaps the upcoming Throwback Pack: 09 Weapon Audio Bundle, will deliver the classic ACR sound as well.
