- "Full-auto heavy ballistic weapon. An experimental gaussian delinker channels ultra-rapid fire into a tight hip spread."
- — In-game description.
The Mauler is a light machine gun in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. It functions similarly to the Chain SAW, from Call of Duty: Ghosts, but this time with the ability to aim down sights.
Campaign
When all side missions are completed, the Mauler unlocks the Heavy Mauler upgrade, which slows the weapon's fire rate in exchange of firing heavier, damage-dealing rounds.
In multiplayer, the Heavy Mauler appears as the Epic gun perk Heavy Hitter. The main cosmetic difference is a significantly larger barrel to fire 50mm Jackal rounds.
Multiplayer
The Mauler is unlocked at level 13. It has a tight hipfire spread due to the integrated gaussian delinker, thus enabling a surprised Mauler user to simply swing around and pull the trigger on the target.
The Mauler Mammoth variant was updated on February 3rd, 2017 to reduce movement speed and increase ADS time[1].
