For a WEAKER melee attack.
Easier then switching to the spade, you cant just click (middle mouse button??) and perform a weaker melee attack.
Possible use: Guy runs at you with spade *shot once then stab*, why not shoot him in the head? well it isnt always possible you might hit his torso, *aw crap he's still coming, no time for another shot, stab*
Also if you die stabbing a guy who breaks through your frontline, your buddies are more likely to kill him alot quicker now he's wounded. Also when getting the intel, if you have the rifle it coul be helpful in that split second situation, when you dont have time to break out ye-olde soade.
Thoughts?
