How to unlock the Bow Mastery achievement in Warframe - Definitive Guide
***This has been fixed in update 17****
There is apparently a glitch that happens in the game where if you click last mission results you can potentially get all the master achievements for that specific slot (ex. Primary, secondary or melee).
In order to get this glitch to work you have to finish a mission and ONLY when the weapon levels up from 29 to 30 in the end mission screen will this glitch work.
When this happens usually you should get the proficiency achievement if you have not gotten it and the mastery achievement for that specific weapon.
So when you return to your ship go to the back and equip a new weapon in the same slot that you just leveled up to 30 with the previous weapon. Now click the menu button and navigate to the last mission results option. When the screen pops up both achievements should pop for that weapon you just equipped. Rinse and repeat for the others you are missing in that category.
If you level up the weapon during the mission instead of at the end of the results screen this glitch will not work.
PS. If your weapons is a 29 and really close to leveling up or about half way. Go to a void mission and do one of those because it usually gives you a good amount of experience to be able to hit that 30 when the match ends.
Leave any comments on how this helps you and please if voted negative let me know. Good luck
Thanks LSK ArchDeific for proving this works

While this glitch no longer works, it's still possible to unlock any "Mastery" achievement fairly quickly after the initial "Proficiency" achievement.
The key is that the achievement counter is not tied to the in-game counter. If you level up a weapon mid-mission, the achievement counter is incremented, but the actual weapon progress isn't saved yet. As soon as you hit level 30 for your weapon, you can return to the dashboard and manually quit Warframe. Start the game back up and do it again, and you'll get credit for reaching level 30 twice. Repeat as necessary for the achievements that require 3 or 5 times.
This doesn't work if you level up the weapon at the mission's end. Your progress will have been saved in-game, so there's no way to return to a pre-30 state and get credit again. You can check your progress mid-mission in the pause menu under "mission progress".

Thanks PuckJunkie for the update on a different way to unlock the achievement

What i did, and it's working with all the mastery achievements, is when you are close to level 30 with any weapon go to any mission and immediately when you hit level 30 close game. Repeat that process 2 times and you will earn the achievement.
You can check the progress on the achievement tab to see if it works :).

Update 19.5 Bow Weapons List
Weapons in brackets are Variations on that Bow, so there is a Paris, Paris Mk-1and Paris Prime.
• Attica
• Cernos (Rakta)
• Daikyu
• Dread
• Mutalist Cernos
• Paris (MK1, Prime)
• Zhuge
.
Unlocking Weapons
Mk.1 Weapons you can buy for Credits from the Marketplace and provide quick replacements.
Lot's of weapons require a Mastery Rank, but by leveling weapons you increase your Rank so this shouldn't be a problem, just make sure to Rank up regularly.
Prime Weapons require Void completion, often high level Survival/Defense 'Rotation C' drops. These are endgame. I use Primarch Prime Part Guide
The Rakta Cernos is a Red Veil Syndicate exclusive and requires MR12.
If you want to finish off Bows quickly then go with Mk-1 Paris and the vanilla Cernos.
Check here for required Mastery Ranks or the Marketplace.
.
Leveling weapons to Rank 30
The best way to level weapons is to play Survival or Defense missions and kill lots of enemies, then extract for the bonus exp, you'll get lots of weapon mastery whilst unlocking all worlds, doing alerts, unlocking other achievements and just playing the game. Remember to always swap for you next weapon and have one ready to swap.
Lots of Dark Sectors have Affinity bonus (+Shotgun), use a Warframe that supports you but doesn't really kill enemies so you rely on your weapons, being in a group spawns more enemies for more exp.
Elara on Jupiter is a great mission for Affinity, as the anti-moas spawn early and often, and they give a fair amount of affinity around 7-9x the exp of grunts.

You probably won't have any trouble obtaining 2 bows but leveling up again a weapon that was reset to rank 0 by changing polarity counts toward mastery.
