How to get kills by hitting the enemy with a direct impact with the RGL-80 in MW3

RGL-80 direct impact kills!

While the camo challenges for the RGL-80 grenade launcher in Modern Warfare 3 are quite straightforward, they can be tedious to unlock. To unlock the Gilded camo, you need to get kills by hitting the enemy with a direct impact from the grenade launcher.

How to get RGL-80 direct impact kills in Modern Warfare 3

The RGL-80 shoots grenades that explode on impact. For this challenge, you need to hit the target directly with the grenade round for this challenge. When you get a kill by hitting the enemy with a direct impact, the Direct Hit medal will pop up on your screen as I've shown in the image above.

If your RGL-80 round lands next to the enemy and you kill them with explosive damage, it will not count towards the challenge. A great way to get direct impact kills is by getting up close to the enemy and using the RGL-80. The round won't explode, but you'll still get the elimination.

The best game modes to get direct hit kills with the RGL-80 are Hardpoint, Team Deathmatch, and other respawn-enabled modes. I also suggest playing War Mode for this challenge. Preferably, you should vote for small-scale maps like Rust and Farm 18, the latter of which is available in MW2 Moshpit. Until Shipment arrives, these are the best maps to unlock the gold camo on the launcher.

The RGL-80 has limited ammo when you spawn, therefore, you can carry a Munitions Box to replenish whenever the field upgrade is available. The Mag Holster gear also helps as it allows you to reload the grenade launcher faster.
