I nvr used claymores n Socom2but i have used them n Socom3!!! Me&a friend usually get2gether on this1! What we do is get2gether n a spot where there is only2entrances&both plant a claymore1way & watch it! that way either way a enemie comes we blow the claymore or of there are multiple enemies(that dont die) we hit the "COVER ME' button & we both turn2defend our spot!? Make sense...???GOOD!!!
I use claymore occasionally, and they work, but most of the time, especially in crucible and other small maps, the grenade barrage takes them out, most of the time WHILE I am planting it, which is never a good thing.
I use them a lot in Big maps because people are less apt to just throw their grenades at the start of every round.
One time when playing demo on Citadel when won twice becuase of Claymores. One round (it was 3on3) we had taken two of the terr and the other one had the satchel, one of our guys was dead. I was guarding the crates but he got past me but the other guy when he saw that the terrorist had planted the bomb he set off the claymores. The next round I shot one of the claymores (any weapon will set them off even BANGS, PMN's too, don't know about M2's haven't tried yet, just found out also direct hits with M203 Smoke and M203 Red Smoke will set PMN's and Claymores off, still need to try M2's)

The weapon is way under-utilized. But from the posts here, it looks like they're making a come back. I usually use clays on Killing Fields small. I'll place one beside the entrance, and one behind the pillar inside. They usually see the first clay, blow it up, think themselves clever, and rush in to get p^wned by the second one.
Ive been using these since the S1 days. They're great to wtch a blind corner or hold down two sides of a building.For control points it gets no better than a claymore.
