The Beggar's Bazooka is a primary weapon for the Soldier. It is a crude rocket launcher made from pipes, mismatched handles and a filter held together with bolts, electrical tape, and various straps and belts. A funnel is attached to the end as a makeshift exhaust port.
The Beggar's Bazooka starts with 0 rounds in its clip. Upon pressing and holding down primary fire, the Soldier will begin loading rockets into the front of the launcher, and will continue to do so as long as primary fire is held down. Upon releasing, the Soldier will fire all stored rockets in quick succession, 70% faster than the standard Rocket Launcher, each with a maximum spread of 3 degrees. Up to three rockets can be loaded and fired in this fashion. If the player attempts to load a fourth rocket, it will explode in the Soldier's hands, heavily damaging the Soldier and any enemies around him. Continuing to attempt loading a fourth rocket will continue to produce misfires. If the player has no ammo in reserve, any rounds in the Beggar's Bazooka's clip will not be fired until the primary fire key is released. Misfires can be used for powerful rocket jumps, due to the Bazooka's largely damaging explosion occurring very near to the player.
The Beggar's Bazooka cannot collect ammo from Dispensers (Including Payload carts), so Soldiers using the weapon must rely on collecting ammo from ammo packs, using the Resupply Cabinet or picking up debris from destroyed Engineer buildings, toolboxes or weapons dropped by dead players.
The Beggar's Bazooka was contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "Doe's Dumpster Device".

Bugs
- Rockets will occasionally hang stationary in the air until a player runs into it.
- Tapping the primary fire button will cause the shot to not play the firing sound.
- If a player on the losing team is loading rockets as a round ends, the sound will keep playing through Humiliation.
- If the player keeps holding the primary fire after losing, the Soldier will keep loading, then overloading, thus causing misfires, which can also be used to attack the winning team.
