Haxor!
In the very first mission of the campaign, you eventually get to the pit. Run through the pit once, and then walk through the gate to start it again (like retrying pretty much), but turn back around and begin walking up the stairs once the timer starts again. WHILE WALKING UP THE STAIRS, shoot an automatic weapon (this prevents you from putting away your weapon, apparently.) When you reach the top, you should still have your gun out. (BTW, I like using the G18 Machine Pistol on the table for this)
Walk further out, more towards where you began the mission, and just shoot. You get a defeat for something that I'm assuming is for shooting in the camp. However, Infinity Ward's devs apparently forgot to add the localization for the defeat message, so instead you get a pretty error message as your defeat.
I know this is a useless glitch, but it just shows how much IW was lazy and didn't finish their game and/or check for bugs/glitches.

In correction to my first post, what causes you to keep your weapon out mostly is reloading. So, shoot, and reload before you hit the top of the stairs, before your gun goes away. Also, it works on the first run through the pit, I believe, not just the second.

I entirely agree with Dopey.
As a former "game" developer I can speak. In game development you have three types of people, coders, meshers (those who makes the meshes) and the colorers (who make the textures and all).
[And in those three categories, you have two subcategories: coders, coders/meshers, meshers, meshers/colorers, colorers].
You start off with the coders who deal with plain-ASCII text all-day and basically see nothing of the game until a later stage.
Here's an UnrealScript example:
You must login or register to view this content.
Meshers will work on building in-game objects (characters, maps, cars, etc.) with only wires like this dolphin:
You must login or register to view this content.
The colorers will work on the making the colors of the game. Their work will be super positioned over the meshes to make them pretty.
That sounds complicated already right? Well, that's just the start...
As a map designer you have to make sure that you can't "fall off" the map, you have to add trigers and link them to an in-game function.
When you code the game, you'll have different people managing different parts of the game, some that will manage Tcp/Ip connections (networkers), some that will manage user-input and that will try to exterminate hacked controllers. If I start getting too detailly it won't take me 5 minutes to write this reply lol.
I hope this [semi-]long [complicated]post showed you how complicated it is to make a game. Even if IW spent 10 years developing MW2, you would still find a bug. Games are getting more and more sophisticated (new technologies). A few years ago, games would run just fine under one graphic card, then nVidia released SLI (Scalable Link Interface).
With that release, you have to entirely re-write your core to be able to use about 135% of 2 GPUs.
In other words, it is IMPOSSIBLE to release a game with out any bugs/hacks/glitches and not be able to hook anything. As an open bet, I'm willing to bet $10 that you can't write a full game (single player with different maps, multiplayer with split-screen and online play) WITHOUT any things mentioned above.

Stfu kid. Bad Company: Battle Field 2 Rapes MW2.
MW2 suxs balls. There is no glitches in BCBF2.
Btw, BCBF2; 1 shot sniper kills no fking hitmarkers, even in the foot.
MW2 - Fkin hit markers all ovr the dam place.
No heartbeat sensors either in BCBF2, i think.
