How to unlock the Marksman - Heavy Arms achievement in Spec Ops: The Line - Definitive Guide

Reload Chapter 10 Part 2 and do that part over until you get the achievement. You can Reload Checkpoint at any point all of your kills will count. You start the mission with a grenade launcher. If not doing this part other guns that count are the rocket launcher and M249 SAW. The mounted turret does not count toward the achievement.

Edit: I've been told the that turrets do count now. I would still just do Chapter 10 Part 2 just to be safe though.

Unless they've updated it, the turret when you are protecting you squadmates didn't count when I did it because I never got any progress on that part and I did it multiple times. I'll change it though.

I can confirm that the grenade launcher on the Scar rifle does count as well.

The easiest place to get this is by replaying Chapter 10-Part 2 over and over again, as you use a grenade launcher the entire chapter. But while you're playing, you can also use the M249 SAW, which is always dropped by the Heavy. This will be the most common heavy weapon you can use throughout the game. The SCAR-H also has a grenade launcher attachment (by pressing up on the D-pad) that counts, though you won't be able to use this often as it only usually has 2 grenades. Then there is the RPG (which is in very few chapters) as well as the grenade launcher (which, besides being in Chapter 10-Part 2, I only found in Chapter 4 and 14) as well as the AA-12 shotgun (again, that I only found in Chapter 14). So play the game through, making sure to use heavy weapons as often as possible, and if you don't have the achievement by the end of the game, just replay Chapter 10-Part 2 until you do.

For this achievement, I found that the rocket launcher, grenade launcher, and M249 SAW will count towards it. The easiest way to get this is to wait until you encounter a juggernaut, which will first happen in chapter 7. Once you kill a juggernaut, pick up the M249 SAW that he drops and use it to kill enemies.

At the very end of the game, if you let yourself live and kill Konrad, you're taken to the Epilogue. You're given the AA12. If you do this on the easiest mode, you can get 10-12 kills in about a minute or two. I think this is faster than 10-2 over and over again.

By the end of the game, I had about 80 kills with a heavy weapon. I'd kill everyone but one or two people in the Epilogue, then Reload Checkpoint. In about 10 minutes, I was done.

Weapons that count:
Grenade Launcher
RPG
M249 SAW
AA-12 

The best place to "boost" this is during Chapter 10 - Part 2, where you protect the truck using a grenade launcher. Just keep killing enemies to progress. If you want, you can purposely die when you see the helicopter, and it will start you back at the beginning of this section. Otherwise, just use the weapons posted above, the most common being the M249 SAW, which you can pick up from tougher enemies.

These stats are cumulative. To unlock this trophy all you have to do is kill 150 enemies with any of the heavy weapons in the game. In Spec Ops heavy machine guns and launchers (both grenade & rocket) are considered heavy weapons. These weapons include:

Machine Guns

  • FN M249E2 SAW
  • General Dynamics GAU-17/A
  • M134 Minigun

Launchers

  • M32 MGL Grenade Launcher
  • RPG-7

Note: Even though the AA-12 is technically a shotgun, it's kills count towards the Heavy Arms Trophy.

Any combinations of kills with any of the above listed weapons count towards the trophy. You do not have to get 150 kills with any single machine gun or launcher. These weapons are frequently placed throughout the game so you should have no problem finding one. In addition to those weapons you will get a chance to wield an unlimited grenade launcher during chapter 10 - Part 2. This trophy should come naturally during your quest for the platinum trophy, as you will be playing through the campaign 2+ times.
