OK, assuming you haven't installed any new hardward/software just before this started happening...

1. Cold boot your computer. That is, turn it off, unplug it for at least 30 seconds, then start it.

2. Pray.

Hopfully it's just a software glitch, or a flutter in a piece of hardware. Otherwise, my best wild guess is a soundcard issue with the soundcard itself, or a sound file it is trying to play, because I'm guessing the sound that should play when you fire your rifle is causing the glitch. If the cold boot doesn't work, re-install COD which should only take 5 minutes if you have the CD handy. Finally, if that doesn't work, perhaps you're playing on some sort of map that has a special mod that changes the sound of your gun, etc, like the MOB stock server where the guns sound different. You may need to delete those and let them reload. If the other 3 steps don't work, let "us" know and someone can guide you through deleting those files.

Finally, if you DID just install a new piece of hardware/software, that's almost certainly your issue. It is causing a conflict of some sort. Test by removing that piece of software/hardware, coldboot and retry COD.
