The first Arms Week event in Destiny 2 is all about Hand Cannons and how much players can make good use of the Volatile mods. Aside from new gear pieces from Ada-1, each Hand Cannon is getting a significant upgrade for seven days, as they can be equipped with Exotic mods. Arms Week also has a seal tied to it, much like every event in the game, be it annual or weekly.
This article lists all the objectives to obtain the standard Sharpshooter seal for the Arms Week event. The gilding objectives can go one step further and provide the golden touch on the seal.
Note that gilding objectives for Sharpshooter are hidden behind the completion of normal objectives. However, following the list below, you should have an idea of what to expect.
