Is the Resurgence Map Pack Worth It?

I will be doing a walkthrough of each of the new maps and my thoughts on them.
Trailer Park
                  Trailer Park is a small map with tight corners and small buildings. It only provides a few areas with a long line of sight. Shotguns and Sub Machine-guns are recommended for this map. It is a great map for game types such as free for all and team deathwatch but demolition is insane. My overall verdict is that it is a very good map.
Fuel
                 Fuel is by far the biggest map in mw2. But this massive size does not help the spawns. The spawn system is just horrible and you will find little to no action in most game types excluding groundwar. The map in my opinion is too big for most game types making it a map i do not recommend. 
Carnival
               Carnival is a medium size map with multiple vantage points. The map is just like a carnival. There are rollercosters, popcorn machines and castles but this makes the map very camp heavy. There are many places for please to camp. The map is okay for most gametypes but is horrible in demolition because the defenders have a great advantage. I do not recommend this map.
Strike and Vacant
              Both of these maps have returned from cod 4 and are still wonderful maps in mw2. On strike most guns can be used including snipers assault rifles and sub machine-guns. Vacant however is much smaller and is very shotgun heavy, but it is still a fun map to play on. Both maps serve very well in objective game types and both maps I give a very good thumbs up

Overall I think the resurgence map pack is better than the previous one. If you are deciding on which to get, I recommend this one and is totally worth the purchase for any avid MW2 player

MW2 Gun Glitches and bugs

Here is the list of all the weapon glitches, bugs, and discrepancies:
Credit for the list goes to Blame Truth

-The M9 with TacKnife's iron sights are off, they shoot below the tip.
The M9's sights are aligned with any other attachment.

-The M9 with Silencer will still show you as a red dot on the mini map when fired.

-The MG4 with Silencer will still show you as a red dot on the mini map when fired.

-The M240 with Silencer will still show you as a red dot on the mini map when fired.

-The MG4's iron sights are off, they shoot WAY below where the tip is.

-FMJ on the Spas-12 doesn't work.

-The FAL with Red Dot Sight is very off, the bullet lands to the bottom right of the dot.

-The Desert Eagle's sights are off.

-The M93 Raffica's ironsights are off and shoot to the right of the tip.
They are also slightly off with the Red Dot and Holographic sight too.

Discrepancies:

Some weapons have differences in themselves with some attachments, or are different from all other weapons. These differences are most likely intentional for balancing purposes.

-The FAL with a Holographic sight gets its damage boosted from 55-35 to 55-40. Stopping Power ONLY has an effect on the FAL with the Holographic sight, making it a consistent two shot kill at any range. The FAL without the Holo sight gets virtually no benefit from Stopping Power.

-The M16 with a Holographic sight gets significantly less recoil/spread than without it. With the Holo sight, it gets less recoil/spread than the FAMAS.

-The AK-47 with ANY attachment except ACOG will add idle sway when aiming down the sight. Thus, it is best to use it with no attachment at all.

-The AA-12 with Extended Mags gets 2 times its original magazine size (8 to 16) as opposed to other weapons only getting 1.5 times their orignal magazine size.

-The M93 Raffica and G18 machine pistols, when Akimbo'd, get a smaller and more accurate hip fire reticle. Other weapons with Akimbo get a larger reticle.

-The Model 1887 shotgun with Akimbo has less effective range than a single 1887. This is due to an old patch IW made to nerf the Akimbo 1887's for balance purposes.
