How to inspect your weapons in Modern Warfare 2

In order to inspect your weapons in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, you just have to hold down a single button. If you’re playing on consoles, to inspect your weapon you’ll have to hold down the left direction on the D-pad. If you are using a mouse and keyboard or playing on a PC, you will have to press the ‘I’ key to inspect your weapon. This will play an animation that will show your operator checking their gun in its full glory.

In the animation, they will remove the magazine as well to check the ammo within it. All the attachments and modifications you have made will be visible clearly. While inspecting the weapon, it is important to know that you will be completely disarmed, i.e. you cannot shoot, but as soon as the animation is done, you can go back to shooting.
