As of November 9th 2020, all event skins are craftable using scrap!
If the achievement doesn't unlock, quit the game and boot it back up. Several users have experienced this.
I'll leave all the old information up just for the sake of people knowing how it was obtained originally.
FINAL UPDATE!: There will be no more events. The skins will be craftable in January 2020.
As of February 15th the update to make them craftable is still pending from The Coalition. The below quote is from TC Octus on Reddit.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Coalition started Versus events for Flaming Weapon skins back in August of 2017.
WARNING!!!: DO NOT SCRAP THE SKIN REWARDS UNTIL YOU UNLOCK YOUR ACHIEVEMENT. YOU NEED 5 AT ONE TIME.
Above information credit to AceMcCloud. Thanks for confirming!
5/3/18 EDIT: The event reward distribution has been updated. They are now tied to Xbox Challenges with zero Gamerscore. There is tracking progress with the challenges, so no need to manually track yourself anymore. Once you have unlocked the appropriate challenge, go to the MOTD (Message of the Day) on the Gears 4 menu, and click 'Claim Reward'. It will redirect you to the Gears official website where you will log in with your Xbox account. Click 'Claim Reward' on the website page and you should receive your reward instantly. Coalition has stated to allow up to 48 hours for the reward to appear.
Alternatively, after you've unlocked the challenges, you can go to the new 'My Reward' page on the Gears website, login, and claim the reward.

I will post any upcoming events as they are announced and edit this solution and make a comment to it as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12/10/17 EDIT: I created a leaderboard for both of the weapon skin achievements in Gears 4. I will send a mass PM to all users that have joined the leaderboard each time a new event is announced. I will also stick to my word and make edits to the solution and post comment updates in addition to the leaderboard PMs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12/21/17 EDIT: Distribution of past several event's weapons skins added in. Also updated formatting of solution. Let me know if this looks more appealing and cleaner for you guys.

Completionists, get ready. The last 3 Flaming Weapon Skins in the collection – the EMBAR, Boltok and Overkill – are up for grabs as part of BTTE! You’ll also get a second shot at picking up the Flaming Lancer as part of the challenges.
Here’s how you’ll collect those sweet Flaming Weapon Skins with your Gears wingman of choice:
We’re In This Together (Flaming Overkill and Boltok)
Complete 10 matches of Brothers To The End or Social TDM
Deadly Duo (Flaming Lancer and EMBAR)
Win 10 matches of Brothers To The End or Social TDM
Why do the challenges count in Social TDM you ask? It’s a quirk of our stat tracking that allowed us to enable these Challenges in time for the event. If you prefer to get them that way, we won’t stop you.
Just like the Griffin challenge, you’ll be able to track your completion progress for these challenges in the Xbox Guide like any other achievement. Once completed, head to gearsofwar.com/en-us/my-rewards (page will be live once the event begins) to instantly claim your skins.
BTTE and it’s associated challenges will be available from Thursday May 3rd at 3pm PT – Monday May 14th at 10am PT.
Feel free to shoot me a message if you have any further questions, comments, or concerns. Thanks for the continued support! Until next time.

Has anyone else had trouble finding a match on Escalation? I've only gotten into three matches in two days.
For Flaming Skins, because they come from Versus, they had a huge backlog, they said they're waiting to do more events until they've got all the skins out, should be doing the Valentine day ones next.
They came up with a better method for the Horde ones so there's been quite a few of those events and will continue, they did say they were working on a better method for the Versus ones, I expect within the recent updates, maybe the 28th March ("April") update they could put in a better method of tracking kills/wins across matches in versus and unlock cards. After that they'll hopefully be more events and more often if they done have to then spend weeks manually checking and giving out the Skins.
You need to have 5 flaming weapon skins in your inventory at the same time to unlock it.
Until then, it'll count how many you currently have and increase the tracker up to that many fifths as a percentage (1 = 20%, 2 = 40%, 3 = 60%, 4 = 80%).
Achievement trackers only increase, they don't decrease, so when you scrap a flaming weapon skin it doesn't reduce the tracker completion percentage, but until you get up to the same amount of flaming weapon skins you had before you scrapped them, it won't increase.
e.g. Have two flaming weapon skins, tracker shows 40% (if it doesn't, restart the game).
You scrap both flaming weapon skins, tracker remains at 40%, but you have 0 flaming weapon skins.
You earn 2 more flaming weapon skins, tracker stays at 40%, as you only have 2 Flaming weapon skins at the moment, that's 40%, once you get another flaming weapon skin and don't scrap the 2 you have, it'll go to 60% as you now have 3 flaming weapon skins.
I just hope it doesn't go the way of Judgement and fall apart before it can be completed.
Just my take on it.
@Hollaback Also once your account is registered you should be fine. I don't think hitting register again will affect anything. Although you may want to reach out to The Coalition for support.
Log in then select menu and click on your gt, then go the bottom of the page
I hope it doesn't take too long for the events.
EDIT: Also I loaded up Gears 4, it says nothing about event skins.
Well, a discontinued achievement saves me a lot of money. If Gears of War becomes incompletable, there is no way in hell I will buy Gears of War 5, 6 or whatever.
Best move from them would be to give those new skins AND also give some flaming skins along for people that do not have them.
Also as I suspected, the Cupid Torque Bow Tag event that's just started is another chance at the Flaming Torque Bow, plus a new Flaming skin, so no need for the doom and gloom, in fact, with Esports skins/events too, it's a pretty busy calendar for the next two/three months.
100 kills in Cupid torque bow for flaming enforcer
5 wins in said gametyoe for flaming torque bow.
So it’s a second chance at one which is good.
Executions might not count as weapon kills.
Using the Master At Arms tracker at this link you can see your Torque Bow kills, make a note of the number you start with, then play Cupid Torque Bow tag until you've gotten over a 100 kills, I'd say get more kills to be on the safe side, as many as you're willing or able to.
http://gowtaccom.weebly.com/tools.html
Don't get Torque Bow kills in any other mode while doing this.
It's what I did for Gearsmas and I got the Flaming Dropshot with the Boomshot.
Play in the Cupid's Torque Bow Tag playlist and complete the objectives between February 9th - 19th to earn your reward!
I managed to get the flaming lancer for signing in one day and the markza for OSOK matches months ago.
Thanks a lot Coalition
The event skins are the ones for the achievement and have to be earned, that's what makes it an achievement... They are not just going to give you the skin to get the achievement without even doing anything!!
For information I also counted direct kills where I was in the match from the start and I didn't get the dropshot
https://gearsofwar.com/en-us/forums/a35773093fe74d3d9970e0a8...
Just a quick question do the saint pattys event count wepons count
I'm sure that I won 5 match, I won minimum 10 of them!
Any got it?
Beginning of March 1-10
Mid March - 11 - 20
End of March - 21 - 31
I would say they are already late if this doesn't drop tomorrow
"Mid March"
The Coallition Just started to roll out the Valentines Skins
https://gearsofwar.com/en-us/community/whatsup-mar22-2018
Flaming weapons events will be back in late April. Hope this helps.
Well, they are getting better, only a week late this time, hopefully everyone who earned them, received them.
Communication still needs some work.
A higher difficulty, a "one life" mode and increasing the skill card cap is not new content.
Flaming Overkill as well as another chance at Flaming Lancer in new 2v2 challenges next week?
I wonder when they'll give us another chance to get these for those of us who didn't get them before they released the achievement:
Flaming Markza Mk.1
Flaming Longshot
Flaming Retro Lancer
Flaming Hammerburst
Flaming Gnasher
Flaming Snub
I need a few more wins.
Don't scrap any flaming weapon Skins until you've gotten five different ones, well can probably scrap duplicates.
EDIT: A quick restart of my X1 console and booting the game up to the main menu and sat for about 2-3 mins and the achievement had popped. Just for anyone who might have over the 5 different flaming weapon skins and the achievement doesn't pop when you get rewarded the skins, do a restart of your console and sit in the main menu for a few mins and the achievement should pop for you.
@Al117 which flaming skins i don't see any and went through the whole twitter page

I got 5 heartbeat, omen, and flaming skins from the lobotomized challenge and my progress bar for "I like em crispy" didn't move from 20% even though I just got 5 flaming skins
Will do shortly
- Mentioned by Dana, Director of Communications for The Coalition on the Developer Stream, Thursday September 10th 2020.
Since there's normally a Gearsmas event every December, I'd guess this will not be able to be addressed until Jan 2021 at the earliest, is my personal opinion.

Edit: Nevermind, just needed to restart Xbox. 😁
We waited 1.5 years and it happened! Hooray! HOORAY!
Can you update a little bit to include that info?

~Slayers Reign
You can use the tracker from Solution for Master At Arms In Gears of War 4 to track your 100 Snowshot kills :)
That's if they ever start doing the events again, probably waiting on a fix for tracking and distributing earned skins.
There used to be one or two Flaming skin events per month, and now there is nothing announced. There is another Crimson Omen skin horde event 16th March - https://gearsofwar.com/en-us/community/whatsup-feb8-2018
You are completly at the mercy of TC on whether or not you will be able to get this achievement.
Don't forget to register, and keep a note of how many you've got on your side.
What I did do as an FYI was only count kills and victories from FULL games. If I joined halfway through a match I didn't add them to my self-made tally. I'm doing the same for the Torque Bow Challenge. Worked last time so figuring it can't hurt this time.
Never mind, found it, page 51. Still no dropshot. First page still says they are on page 11.
And apparently I have my dropshot now. Weee!
@A4L ParalyzE That's pretty much the reason this is the last Gears of War game I'll ever play as long as it's made by Coalition. Everything they did with this game is wrong. They released SEVERAL DLCs with absolutely no new content at all to justify them. They made we play the game 7 times just because of some new stupid achievement. They made we play the same horde maps over and over again. The same multiplayer over and over again.
Everything they did with this game was to please the minority of people that only play Gears of War everyday, year after year until the next one comes out and then they move on. The "content" they released is either completely ignored by the vast majority of players, because it brings nothing new to the game at all, or pisses people that though they were done with the game and have more things to play.
If they wanna please solely the top 1% of their player base, so be it. Try and sell the next game to this small group of people and then tell me how this works out. I know for a fact they won't get more money from me ever again.
You should have your Valentine's event skins now and they count toward the achievement, just as they should. They've already announced the next opportunities for flaming skins will be late April. You'll get your skins. You guys are overreacting. Seems like gamers are never satisfied with any game. Seems like every community is full of compliants no matter what game you go to. I've seen this game is no different.
I enjoy this game, and while I agree there's things they could fix, I also feel they've gotten a lot right in this game as well.
If you read my comment carefully you'll see I never even mentioned this achievement or skins. I'm disappointed by the fact that they keep releasing achievements that are boring and bring no new things to the game. It's not only coalition doing that. Final Fantasy XV did that on the latest DLC. Tomb Raider did it. Dead Rising 4 did it. It's like the new cancer, release achievements that just make you replay content you have already played with nothing new at all. I don't know how some people can find this a good thing. Gears just took it all to the next level making us replay things over and over again That's why Coalition is the one I despise the most. They are not by far the only ones in the wrong here, they are just the worst of the lot.
The event starts June 22nd at 10am PDT usually. You can also obtain another weapon skin for the same challenge, although the new skin is not attached to any achievements (yet).
Our next 2v2 event is on the way – and it’s a doozy. You’ve been asking us for a hardcore 2v2 Gnashers Only experience and now you’re getting it in it’s purest form. Beginning Friday, 2v2 Gnashers Only Execution will arrive in Gears 4 for the first time! And yes, it has Competitive Tuning.
All the hot Gnasher action takes place on Raven Down. With two minutes on the clock, you’ll need to win each round fast to take home the win. Oh and, there’s a little something special up for grabs too.
Take on our next Gears 4 challenge for the first ever opportunity to earn a skin from our new animated Heartbeat Weapon Skin set for your Gnasher! We’re also providing a second shot at earning the Flaming Gnasher with this challenge for those of you who missed out last time.
Grab a buddy, get out there and win 50 rounds to make these sweet skins all yours. As always, claim your rewards instantly at https://gearsofwar.com/en-us/my-rewards
As always, shout with any questions, comments or concerns.

Today's "Whats Up" only lists Heartbeat and Cupid skins for the Valentine event however. I guess this means Flaming skin(s) for OSOK on the 22nd, if we're lucky.
