Hi! I'm wondering, what is the best/fastest way to accomplish weapon challenges?
I only have a few of those and it seems to take lots of time to get one done.
How are the points awarded? Assist? Or only kill? The higher the difficulty, the more points you earn?
That's rather a simplistic answer, to say the least

I believe any points derived from weapon damage count towards the challenge. You'll usually get more for kills, but assists should also award any points from weapon damage towards the challenge. The points are higher as you increase difficulty, with Platinum providing the highest return.

But accurate.
Preferably with a weapon which weapon challenge you want to finish.
Pfft. Details.

Now you're talking! Thanks!

I already knew that fact 
If you're chasing overall CP, note that a lot of weapons count twice, for example Talon needs 140k in Pistol mastery and 200k in Outsider.
I'm sure someone will post a comprehensive list any minute now

Based on weapon dps and whoever gets the kill get bonus points on top too.

That's be quite useful to know. I don't have a Talon so I might do to Pistol when I get it. I mean, I can do other 8 Pistols in the meantime
GI + Weapon
Like... Any weapon? Just because of his passive? As a matter of fact, as I'm looking for 26 Gold Challenges, I'm better of dividing the wepaon challenges among the kit challenges.
More points if Unknown Map(25%) Unknown Enemy(15%)
Ghost for assault rifles
GI for every other weapon (hunter mode, tactical cloak and proxy mine are what make him the best option)
FQI for solos using the Sabotage trick

Hmmm good to know. Let's say it takes a lot of time to get 25 Gold Challenges
I also intend to work on Map Mastery, so Unknown Map won't help with that. I'm still missing some Silver Challenges against Cerberus and Collectors. But I'm not too far, no Unknown Enemies shouldn't be an issue.

Sabotage trick is to stun enemies and headshot them?

Not really. This video explains it very well, iirc:

This reminded me of the time about a year ago at work (on 9-11) we have a dry erase board in the kitchen usually written with announcements, etc. I took a marker, drew the world trade center towers and two dick-planes crashing into them. It was great.
On topic-turian soldier for all your weapon challenge needs.
I like to mix up weapon loadouts anyway, so the weapon challenges were overall the least painful for me to get out of any of the categories, more or less.
There isn't much of a secret, although people have posted their favorite ways to try and make them go faster. Try to match the weapon with a character that uses it well. This does not necessarily run GI one hundred times for all the weapons, but I would recommend using more weapon damage friendly characters for weak guns, and then whoever for stronger guns. Also keep in mind characters with racial (multiplicative) weapon damage bonuses.
Really the only oddball mechanic that is helpful is that Sabotage's backfire xp is awarded to whatever dealt damage to the target most recently before backfire hits. This is why backfire kills sometimes go to different players, but it also means that you can get a little extra gun XP if you run a character with Sabotage (QFI makes the most sense) against organics. This is nice for some of the weak guns to get their points a little faster. I would use that mainly for weak guns that are relatively accurate, since inaccurate guns work better on accuracy boosting classes like Destroyer or Turian Soldier.

Funny, that's always the music I have chosen in ME2 in Shepard's stateroom.
