How to get the rangefinder scope in Modern Warfare 2

If you're looking for scopes with a rangefinder in Modern Warfare 2, you can equip the XTEN Angel-40 and Angel-40 4.8x optics on your weapon. These two optics have the target range indicator feature that mentions your distance from the object or enemy you're aiming at on the scope itself. While the XTEN Angel-40 offers a low-magnification, holographic sight picture, the Angel-40 4.8x is a hybrid scope with toggleable 4.8x and low-magnification zoom levels. Also, note that the Angel-40 4.8x, being a higher zoom optic, isn't available for close-range weapons like SMGs, Shotguns, and Handguns.

These rangefinder optics are popular among players who grind for weapon camos in MW2. Since the Platinum camo for most weapon classes requires you to get longshot kills, the XTEN Angel-40 and Angel-40 4.8x optics come in clutch for this challenge. Using these scopes, you can adjust your distance from the target to get those longshots.
