Does destroying killstreaks with guns get them xp?

[YourDragon son]

I saw a comment on tmartn weapon xp video on YouTube and someone said getting weapon xp destroying killstreaks with the gun. Does anyone know if this is true cause my Msr is barely halfway through level 30-31 and this would help getting it gold a lot faster. Would explain why I see people shooting at the pavelow and stuff with guns instead off a stringer.

I'm pretty sure it does give you xp.

Yes it does, i'd say you should use blind eye pro if your going to try to destroy killstreaks like airsupport. With blind eye pro it took me 1 clip from the ACR to destroy a attack heli, and almost all the ammo from the Scar-L without blind eye pro. With the MSR being bolt action without blind eyepro it would take even longer, and probably waste alot of ammo if the ammo capacity is low to start with, (i dont know how much ammo it has, never used it) Blind eye pro makes your bullets do more damage to airsupport and sentries btw, alot more damage.

Yea blind eye pro boost damage by 1.6 times the normal damage or so I heard

and it does helps. I got my Msr gold now next weapon gold will be the model 1887
