How do I find my weapons i got from my 5 battlepacks that i opened?

[Assassln420]

One of the weapons i got is the bar m1918 telescopic lmg called the "Warhorse" and under the name it says distinguished in blue writing. I cannot find it to equip it along with a few other weapons i got from the other 4 battlepacks i opened for pre ordering the early enlister deluxe edition. Do i need to start a game and then it will be in my weapons list? Cuz its not in my available weapons when i am at the main menu then go to soldier>weapons and gadgets. Thanks for any and all responses!

Actually, those are skins for weapons you unlock in game.

To equip your skin, join a match, and look for the weapon you got the skin for(For example the m1918) then click to customize it(Y/triangle on consoles). Then go to the last option 'Visuals', and you'll see all your unlocked skins for that weapon there.

@Assassln420 Hey, you can also do so from the companion app. You can find the web version of it here: https://www.battlefield.com/companion

You can manage your loadouts and skins at your leisure from here, without the pressure to respawn.

@Assassln420 Hey, sorry for not adding this earlier, but you can see your unlocked battlefield content from the Inventory section of the Battlepack menu. You can get to the Battlepack menu either by choosing it from the loading screen before a match or from he main menu by choosing Soldier > Battlepacks.
