Sixth episode of 'Time To Kill', a series devoted to the inner workings and mechanics of Call of Duty's multiplayer.
Sometimes, the best addition to your weapon - is another weapon.
In this episode, we're covering the underslung attachments.

The M320 also makes an appearance as a standalone secondary weapon, in the M320 GLM.
