The snipers you can currently unlock in Modern Warfare 2 Beta are the Signal 50, the Lockwood MK2, and the LM-S Marksman Rifle. For the Signal 50 and the Lockwood MK2, the only way you can unlock them is by progressing through the game and ranking up. You cannot get them through weapon progression, so you have to work your way up a bit to get the two guns. For the Signal 50, you need to reach rank 20 or 21 to unlock it, and for the Lockwood MK2, you need to reach rank 23. The LM-S Marksman Rifle can be attained through weapon progression. To get this weapon, you should first unlock the Lachmann 762. Once you get the Lachmann 762, you have to keep leveling it up till it reaches level 17. You can now unlock the LM-S. Once you have all three snipers, you can use them in matches.
