You got a pic of that bad boy?
Two minutes and a trip to the shelf and I do
The HBdev is a 3rd ed metal/plastic hybrid kit. The chainsword bayonet is from the venerable RTB01 box, although I believe FW makes them these days.
Edit:
In retrospect, I guess an under-barrel mount could be used for something sane, like a bipod to brace with. I think the scouts do something like that. But come on, in a world where you have chainsword bayonets, and you are already a post-human super soldier, seems a waste to do the sensible thing...

Heavy bolter for sure. I love their look, their style, and they were my favorite weapon in DoWII and Space Marine Mutiplayer. The sound of the weapon was glorious

Oh, indeed. The sound of that Heavy Bolter opening up let everyone know that gak just got real.
It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.

1. Lascannon.
There's nothing more satisfying than destroying vehicles with this thing, not to mention the sheer murder it causes to many HQ's with its raw power. AP2 hurts a lot, and S9 insta-kills many.
2. Missile launcher.
Oh, the old love - by taking 2 squads of devastators with these, including flakk missiles, they're THE all-rounder heavy weapons teams. By air, by land, no matter how they come - these guys will cause harm to the opposition.
3. Multi-melta.
Land Speeders and Land Raiders turn this otherwise situational heavy weapon variant of the traditional meltagun into something that spreads terror upon those that field many tanks. A unit that has a 24" bubble of potential harm, and a 12" bubble of (almost) certain doom sounds scary - especially if it moves 12" per turn. Too bad the Law of the Melta kicks you under the belt sometimes (= "Melta rarely hits").
