Yer all bloody dead!
The Demoman

The Loch-n-Load is a secondary weapon for the Demoman and was released as part of the The Expert's Ordnance set. It appears as a break-action Grenade Launcher, with separate barrels for each of the two grenades it fires.

The weapon fires grenades that travel much faster and inflict slightly more damage upon a direct hit. However the grenades will shatter harmlessly upon hitting anything other than an enemy. The grenades additionally deal increased self-damage to the Demoman who fired them, making close up attacks more hazardous.

Damage

  • Direct Hit: 112
    • Critical hit: 336
    • Self damage: 53-93 damage (only from point blank range)
    • Critical hit: Deals same amount of self damage as a regular grenade (53-93)

Damages are approximate and determined by community testing.

Bugs

  • The Loch-n-Load uses the same reload animation as the Grenade Launcher, making it appear as if the Demoman is loading grenades into the side of the barrel.
  • Grenades fired bounce off certain dynamic surfaces such as the moving walkways of Nucleus, as well as teammates.
  • The sight has been moved up the barrel, and is therefore not properly clipped into the correct position.

Trivia

  • The Loch-n-Load's name is a word play on the phrase "lock and load", a slang military command to prepare firearms for battle. The word "loch" is a Gaelic word for "lake", and is a reference to bodies of water such as Loch Ness in Scotland.
