How to Unlock Insured Slots in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies

With the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Activision spared no expense in giving the game all of the classic elements of the series, which means the return of the ever-popular Call of Duty Zombies. In this mode, players get many different weapons, tools, and customization options to do battle in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, and one of these features is the insured slot for your weapons. 

What are Insured Slots in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies?

Insured slots in Modern Warfare 3: Zombies are an integral tool for your survival. The Insured Slot is a weapon of your choice that you bring with you onto the battlefield. When you lose it, it will simply enter a cooldown status for several hours. This is in contrast to contraband weapons, which you lose permanently when you lose them in battle. This is an important feature, as it always ensures that you have a gun handy when you descend onto the battlefield.

On the other hand, Contraband weapons are those you pick up in battle. They are lost when you die. You will start out with a single insured weapon slot, but you can gain more. Be careful which weapon you pick before you can unlock more slots.

How do I unlock more Insured Slots?

Players unlock more insured slots by completing missions in Zombies Mode. You earn a slot for each of the two acts you complete in Zombies. Unlike other mission tasks, each of the acts is a total of many smaller missions, with six tiers in total. For example, “Direct Line” has you complete a contract on the map, and “Treasure Hunter” has you open a certain number of chests. Even if it will be a long time until you receive your extra slots, you will have motivation to continue.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is available for the Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Windows.
