A_CPosAttack
From DoomWiki.org
Chaingunner attacking the player in MAP03.
A_CPosAttack in his attack sequence is the code pointer that inflicts damage.A_CPosAttack is a code pointer used in the attack animation for the Wolfenstein SS and heavy weapon dude.
The logic in A_CPosAttack is identical to A_PosAttack used in the zombieman's pistol attack; the only difference being that the DSSHOTGN sound effect is played (presumably to make the chaingunner's weapon sound more intense). The two code pointers can be swapped without changing any gameplay behavior other than the sound effect.

Or using BEX syntax:
[CODEPTR] Frame 1234 = CPosAttack
