No soldier is ever truly defenseless unless all their arms and legs are cut off or they are shot in the spine. Every single formal modern army trains their soldiers in at least basic melee combat. If you are caught without ammo with a gun in your face, you're at a severe disadvantage, not defeated. With skill and a little luck you should be able to at least have a chance to get through it.

As for the OP, I like the idea of a quick riflebutt-strike (or maybe a kick) along with equippable knife. Especially if the rifle strick has small knockback or a very short(like 1/2 sec) stun. It'd serve the purpose of creating some distance to more easily shoot the guy while the equippable knife serves for close range stealth kills.

Whatever ends up in at launch, just say NO to quick-knife
