1. The act of striking an opponent with the butt end (rear) of a rifle or other similar shoulder-fired weapon. Used in the absence of a bayonet or conditions that prevent its effective use. Can often be seen in FPS games as the default melee attack when using a rifle type of weapon, in the absence of a knife attack. 2. A method for clearing a firearm, specifically a stocked rifle or a shotgun, when dealing with a stuck bolt or case preventing the bolt from being effectively retracted. The charging handle is gripped firmly and the weapon is slammed down on the ground, butt-end first, to aid in either extracting the case, or releasing the casehead from the bolt face. Generally a sign of poor ammunition or weapon maintenance.
