0Cool, nice to know random things. The flamethrower or masterkey work quite well on the M14, if you know it gonna get close combat.

0Ok, maybe not the forum for this. However, I have been using an underslung flamethrower for weeks now…. in Call Of Duty: Black Ops.
If any of you are gaming with the Xbox version – look for screen name ‘therebelminion’. We can light each other on fire.

0It goes back even farther than that… the US Army Chemical Warfare Service developed a device known as the “Flaming Bayonet”. It mounted under the muzzle of either a M1903 or M1917 rifle, allowing a bayonet to also be mounted. The general idea was during the attack, a doughboy would charge an enemy, fire the device, and, while the badguy is distracted by the 5 to 15 foot flame, run him thru with the bayonet. There were 4 different models developed, using either a liquid or solid (cartridge) filling. All models were loaded with 5 shots.

0To be fair, I hated that damn weapon attachment in the game. Made you a target for snipers in multiplayer. I preferred just the plain old gun with maybe an optic, heck, dual wielded pistols were a more viable option.

0That’s more like a submachine gun on top of a flamethrower than a flamethrower under a gun.
