Captain Knight’s Rearguard Rifles (Tunnel Ambush)

The soldiers' rifles are rendered useless against the Yeti, their bullets having no effect on the creatures' mechanical bodies. O'Brien's rifle jams mid-combat, forcing him to use it as a club before the Yeti overpower him with their web guns. The rifles symbolize the unit's dwindling options—conventional weapons are ineffective, and the soldiers are left defenseless. Their failure underscores the Yeti's superiority and the unit's desperation, as they are forced to retreat without the ability to fight back.

The soldiers' rifles, already proven ineffective against the Yeti's thick hides, are rendered completely useless as the Yeti's web guns coat the barricade. The webbing's absorption of the explosive blast underscores the rifles' futility, as even bullets had no effect earlier. The rifles lie abandoned as the group retreats, symbolizing the collapse of conventional military tactics in the face of the Yeti's adaptive defenses.

The soldiers' rifles are used in a desperate rearguard action against the Yeti, but the bullets have no effect. O'Brien's rifle jams, and he is forced to use it as a club before being overpowered.
