Hi
How to use Riot Shield
The way I use the riot shield is that I take out my secondary (.44 Magnum) and run with tactical knife and go into buildings to see if there are campers, but if I am playing for example in HQ Pro then and you are going to the target, and it's inside a building I would put on my riot shield and then go in their, because then I most likely won't be killed if there is a group of enemies I would just go to a corner and crouch and then they most likely won't get you. Make sure you cover your feet, because that is the thing most people with riot shield don't do, then the enemy could simply kill you on your feet.
Class Setup
Primary Weapon: Riot Shield
Secondary Weapon: .44 Magnum + Tactical Knife
Equipment: Throwing Knife
Perk 1: Marathon Pro
Perk 2: Lightweight Pro
Perk 3: Commando Pro
Death: anything you want
Why this setup is good to use
.44 Magnum + Tactical Knife: I like using the .44 Magnum because if your with your right shield and you see someone pass by you and not notice you you could simply take out your .44 Magnum out fast and then your tactical knife and commando helps you knife him on the back. Also, you can pick your knife up after you throw it.

Also, you can pick your knife up after you throw it.
Throwing Knife: I think the throwing knife is a good equipment to use with your right shield, because if you see someone ahead of you then you can throw your throwing knife at them and get them, but I don't mean long range, like medium range. Also, it is a good advantage if the other person is shooting at you and then he has to reload and that is your change to throw your throwing knife at him. This is a good advantage, because most of the people don't expect it.
Marathon Pro: I like using Marathon , because you can run and don't have have to stop at all. A good advantage is if someone is shooting at you from like a medium range and you are close to a building you can make a run for it, also it's great for you to run around with your .44 Magnum and Tactical knife and knife people.
Lightweight Pro: I like using lightweight, because you can move a lot faster. For example if a predator missile is gonna hit you or a harrier strike bomb then you can make a dash for it. Also, if you are in trouble like getting shot at your riot shield, then you can like run for it when they are reloading.
Commando Pro: I like using commando, because you can pretty much knife people from a great distance. For example, if you are in Terminal at the hallway before you enter the plane, there usually is someone in the very front of the plane waiting for people to come to him so he can shoot, but with commando you could just knife him and he's dead, but your face may be a little bloody.
This took almost an hour to make, so please don't be mean or flame.

Its a good post, however I think you should add in the whole C4 tactic to the OP, as most people find this easier and more effective than throwing knives.
You should also add in how amazing stun grenades are while your riot shielding, its ridiculously under-rated.
When I played MW2, I used to always play SnD with a Riot Shield class for fun haha, so I got pretty decent at it.

Haha soo much fun. Its one thing I always resorted to if I just got really bored and angry with MW2.
Thanks for the rep :y:
I only realised how well stuns work with Riot Shields after watching a video.. They have absolutely no chance of running around your flank, and you can just run up and smack them :p
