How to unlock the Tunnel Rat achievement in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare - Definitive Guide

This achievement isn't hard or annoying but it's specific in what the requirements are so here's what I found by screwing up 2 runs before I got it.

Don't use flashbangs/melee/nades they do actually void the achievement, the game literally means only use your 1911, if someone gets too close remember Zombieland's Rule #2: THE DOUBLE TAP do NOT melee. Keep this in mind at all times, especially when climbing up the ladders near the end when everything is on fire, enemies spawn in randomly, so stay frosty. laugh

Don't pick up any other weapons either, disarming the tripwires is fine however. I'm actually not sure if this is a requirement but after screwing this achievement up twice I wasn't doing this mission for a 4th time, the 2nd run I picked up a FAL on accident and didn't get the achievement.

Take it slow, aim for the mid to upper chest and headshots, you will need the ammo even on recruit, if you happen to run down to about 7/21 (7 active, 21 reserve) and if you die/restart checkpoint you get an ammo refill (at least on Recruit difficulty).

When you get to the MG's nest, run then slide to the left (making sure to kill the guy there first) when it overheats and prone. then mantle over the wooden wall you've just taken cover behind, prone again then run on the 3rd overheat, that thing shreds even on recruit difficulty, be mindful the gunner has a friend sat beside him with a shotgun.

@FATAL EMBRACE69 this achievement is just for the tunnel section of the mission

On Regular difficulty you don't get an ammo refill, and I was just a couple bullets short, so Recruit is the way to go for this one

There is m1911 ammo somewhere in the fire section at the end but yeah you most likely don’t need it at that point. Yeah I wondered why I wasn’t getting it but realized I was using a flash at the MG section and didn’t think that affected it when you’re not killing anyone with the flash.

Yeah, it's just very specific which I found odd but also strangely like. The same thing that applies to this achievement applies to Warheads on Foreheads too, if you didn't know.

I did this on Veteran difficulty and didn't get more ammo when I died (I got down to 7/7). Like J2B9 said, there are a couple 1911 pistols in the fire section that gave me more ammo than I needed.

Yeah like I said, I'm thinking that re-supply on restart/death is on recruit only.

I just got this on realism difficulty, I ran out of ammo about three or four enemies away from the extra ammo and punched them with the 1911 out and still got the achievement.

Currently running this right now, at the MG nest, and I can confirm I cannot replenish my ammo from restarting checkpoint or dying.

EDIT: I managed to earn the achievement just fine, I had enough ammo to reach the fire section, where I got more 1911 ammo. But the fact remains that restarting/dying must either be a glitch for some players or now since patched.

It seems to happen if you run low on ammo and after a certain amount of restarts. When doing the achievement for 11 bullets 11 kills and taking no damage (forget the name I think it was in mission 5) I would constantly get ammo back when restarting constantly.

At the MG checkpoint, I emptied all but one final magazine and both restarted and died normally. Nothing changed.

Just dropping by to say that a well placed forehead shot to the machine gunner while he's overheated will end him much faster than bobbing and weaving.

Also, meleeing does not invalidate this achievement.

ALSO, one of the two guys setting up a barrel trap just after the first railcar push will ALWAYS drop a grenade upon death to ignite it. Be wary of that if you're just planning on sprinting through.

Got this first run on realism difficulty. It really isn't that bad. Might be worth mentioning you can pick up the enemy 1911s and it doesn't void the achievment. I swapped the shotgun with one to get more ammo.

*Repost of original comment for historical sake*
This isn't a full solution but after my first run through playing on Regular I only used the 1911 but I also used Flash Grenades on the MG section. I didn't get the achievement so waiting for the MG to overheat and cool down to move to flank him without Flash Grenades would probably net the achievement

You can pick up an enemy's 1911. I did multiple times and at one point had over 100 rounds. Easiest achievement yet. I also shot the dude at the very end and it popped right after I cut the red wire.

This was super easy. There are a few places to pick up ammo along the way. I also want to point out that shooting explosive barrels (with the 1911) does not void the achievement. I shot the explosive barrel to take out the MG nest and got the achievement still which makes that part simple.

This is bugged. Just did it two times, all kills with the1911, no melees, didn't throw nades, nothing!

Confirmed. Using 1911 to shoot (small one next to blue barrel) propane tank to kill MG works. 2 tap everyone and you won't run out of ammo. Score some headshots early to gain some leeway.

Idk is this helps but if anyone is still stuck here's what I found:
-Defusing traps is ok.
-If enemies are killed by explosions/fire it won't cancel the achievement.
-Don't even switch to the shotgun it gives you, doing to will cancel the achievement.
-No flash/semtex/molotov.
And just as a helpful tip there are places you can find 1911 ammo such as the first movable minecart so its ok to use a few rounds on enemies but just be careful not to run out before you find extra ammo.

Ran out of ammo, melee hit the explosives before the Machine gun to take that out, melee hit several enemies after that as well. Got the achievement on Realism. Mad man.

Got the achievement. DONE on RECRUIT/ROOKIE difficulty. Playing on XBOX SSX , not SXX. If you are warrying about low-ammo , no need to panic ; a second 1911 hand gun (pistol) can be found where the flash thermite lights the barrels to cause explosions.

Yeah I ran down to 7/21 (I was contemplating a restart because that wasn't enough for the rest of the section) and died then spawned in with way more ammo than I needed to get the achievement about half way through the successful run. Not sure what the actual trigger is for that, it's most likely a recruit thing.

Big f. I came down to 2 bullets in a mag and no reserve when I fell down the drop and seperated from Farah. I used a moly to kill the guys by the barrel. Press f my man

*For those feeling adventurous like I was and want to do this achievement on a veteran/realistic run.* When you get to the part where the tunnel is on fire (right after you push the cart to go up.) Go straight back just before going up the first ladder and you will find fresh 1911 ammo. This will aide you in getting the achievement. P.S. I also used melee on a couple of soldiers and still got the achievement. Happy hunting!

Just adding some confirmations on Recruit difficulty. With the first ambush you encounter while crawling under the booby trap, first guy on the left has a shotgun. Multiple reloads of checkpoints showed if you snuck up and disarmed the 3rd trip mine before they come walking out, he immediately swaps to a 1911 after his first shot. Or if you allow him to empty his clip he will swap to his 1911. Note: He must swap to his pistol to pick it up. This will NOT cancel the achievement.
The attachments varied but almost always included some sort of upgrade from the standard model. Most notably a red dot with extended magazine. Helped out way more conserving ammo with the red dot. With that said there is always a full magazine waiting for you by the second minecart. While standing behind it, facing the direction your about to push. It's between the front right wheel and the wall, laying on the ground.. full mag for your ascent.

Cheers

---Mission 10: The Wolf's Den---

- ONLY use the 1911 Pistol once you get to the part of the mission where you enter the tunnel (shooting other weapons before that part is OK just make sure to keep your pistol)

- Using Melee or Grenades (Flash Counts) will VOID this cheev! So be picky with your pistol shots, aim high.

- Near the end part climbing the ladders you will find more ammo, also if you die with an empty weapon I beleive it's gives you 1 clip of ammo when you reload the checkpoint

+ With every miscellaneous Achievement use "Reload Checkpoint" to your advantage, also difficulty won't void any of these so you can do them all on Recruit

You can get this on Mission 10 The Wolf's Den. Once you pull up the wood and drop down into the tunnel the achievement starts. Do not use anything but the 1911, no melees, no smoke grenades, nothing notta, dont even pick up other weapons! Try to use no more than 2 rounds per enemy. Line up as many headshots as possible because if you run out of ammo you cant melee them so conserve ammo.

At the beginning of the level there is a guy you kill in a bathroom. He has a 1911 pistol on him with a lot of ammo. There is another guy in the tunnels that has 1911 pistol ammo in the section where there are 3 guys and some boxes laying around.

Mission 10: The Wolf's Den

After a mid-mission cutscene, you will be under ground in a set of tunnels and mines. You will start with the 1911 pistol and must only use it to kill enemies. To be safe don't pick up any weapons off of the enemies you kill or use melee attacks. Focus on head shots to conserve ammo and if you run out you can die and respawn with more ammo.

so this is obviously on the mission called the wolfs den and about 1/3rd of the way into the mission you will go into a tunnel system where you are given the pistol you need for this achievement
from there its pretty simple but also easy to mess up
ONLY use your pistol, no grenades, no melees JUST YOUR PISTOL
choose your shots carefully because ammo is tight but if you die you will get more ammo so its not too bad
double tap enemies and just keep going :)

The 10th mission: "The Wolf Den" gives you a 1911 once you fall into the hole. The Tunnel Rat achievement requires you to finisht the mission with just using the 1911.

DO NOT PICK UP A WEAPON, USE A LETHAL OR TACTICAL, DO NOT MELEE, DO NOT SHOOT AN EXPLOSIVE BARREL - doing such will void the achievement.

Your biggest issue is going to be ammo as you start with ~30-40 shots. Obviously aim for the head and take your time.

Some enemies, when shot in the leg/lower half will fall and bring out a pistol. Most of the time they pull a 1911 thus giving you extra ammo to get through the mission.

The achievement should pop during the outro cutscene after you defuse the bomb!

Mission 10: "The Wolf's Den"

The first part of this mission takes place outside and in a couple buildings. Don't fret that you don't have a 1911 pistol. After going down into the tunnels and a cinematic plays, you'll regain control and have one. From here until the end of the mission, you must use no other weapons or gear except your 1911 pistol. This means no guns AND no flashbangs, molotovs, etc. Not only that, but there have been reports of the achievement not unlocking if you even pick up another gun. Using a melee on enemies is up for contention, but it's a safer bet to avoid that as well to ensure the achievement unlocks.

The main challenge with this achievement is ensuring you don't run out of ammo. If you're playing on Recruit difficulty, this isn't an issue because whenever you die or reload a checkpoint you'll respawn with full ammo. On higher difficulties, you'll need to manage your ammo. I personally unlocked this achievement on Veteran difficulty and still had 17 bullets left at the end of the mission, and I didn't get any additional ammo along the way. So there is plenty of ammo as long as you aren't spraying bullets mindlessly. There aren't many enemies in the tunnels, it's usually just one or two at a time, so just line up your shots well and you'll have plenty of ammo. There is more ammo for the 1911 at the section where the enemies light everything on fire and you have to climb the ladders, so at least if you can make it that far you can get more ammo there.

One last important thing to note is that when you get to the guy on the machine gun, you'll be instructed to use flashbangs to blind him. Obviously you can't do this if you want to unlock this achievement. Instead, wait for a lull in his fire and run/slide to the next piece of cover. Even on Veteran I was able to make it from cover to cover without being killed while he was shooting. Just make sure to sprint and slide.

Once you reach Farah at the end of the mission, this achievement will unlock.

You must only use a 1911 pistol. No molotov cocktails, grenades, including smoke and flash bangs! Hand-to-hand combat cannot be used either. If a grenade hits you, you can’t throw it away either.
