The Demoman on heavy grenades

The Iron Bomber is a community-created primary weapon for the Demoman. It is a quad-barreled grenade launcher with slightly-longer barrels, a wooden foregrip and stock, and a large, circular, flip-up front sight.

The grenades fired by the Iron Bomber are spherical in shape, glow, and do not bounce or roll much at all, leaving them to explode in mostly the same place as where they first collided with an object (aside from the effects of gravity). They have a 20% smaller blast radius (except for the Demoman who fired it) and deal 10% less damage than normal grenades if they explode on their timer (as opposed to directly hitting an enemy).

The Iron Bomber was contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "The Scotch Guardian".
