While it might seem straightforward to equip the KVO Enforcer marksman rifle and start getting kills without a scope, this weapon is currently bugged and doesn’t track operator kills for the challenge. To ensure your kills are counted, you need to use the Lockwood MK2 marksman rifle from MW2.

Equip the Lockwood MK2 with all necessary attachments except for a scope and head into some games—possibly on the new maps introduced in season four. Using the JAK Wardens Conversion Kit on the weapon will not contribute to the challenge’s completion in Call of Duty: MW3.
