buttstroke

the act of striking someone with the buttstock of a rifle, carbine, or shotgun. This is in contrast to "pistol-whip," which is the act of striking someone with a handgun, while gripping either the handgrip or the barrel/slide, but more commonly the latter.

"The brave Marine, having expended his last magazine, but lacking a bayonet, saw fit to buttstroke the charging enemy combatant."

Buttstroke

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.

doing the buttstroke

Slang for when someone propels themselves through a still body of water, usually a swimming pool, entirely by passing gas.

This amazing and talented young woman apparently has the most powerful farts on the planet; I watched her doing the buttstroke the entire length of the high school gym pool!
