How to unlock the Burning a hole in your pocket achievement in Zombie Army Trilogy - Definitive Guide
After the forest, you will get the note to inspect the "Sawmill", after you pushed the Truck down the road a few enemies will spawn from the fire and among them is our new best buddy, you will hear him starting his chainsaw and walking slowly towards you.
He can also run...
Like the super elite guy's, shoot his helmet off, and headshot him a few times (~10 on cadet)
and BE VERY FAST to loot him, he vanishes after 0.5 nanoseconds.
The best spot to get this achievement is in the "Forest of Corpses" (episode 3). However, it is the second encounter with the chainsaw elite. There's a checkpoint right before fighting him and there's no zombies to worry about during the fight. So, if you happen to miss looting him, just restart from checkpoint.
Hope this helps! Good luck.
First, kill all the zombies, use your grenades to kill groups of them, while avoiding the chainsaw dude.
Once all the zombies are out of the picture, use a machine gun to whittle the Chainsaw Elites health a bit (about 100 rounds should suffice) and a few mines if you have them (if you dont have the mines, use 200 machine gun rounds).
Now, stay a short to moderate distance and he will raise his chainsaw up for a few seconds and charge you, followed up by a few swings. THIS IS YOUR OPENING.
He will stagger after the swings, allowing you to get close and shoot him (make sure you're in ADS!!) point blank.
Once he starts his death animation, stand on top of him and hold , once he becomes lootable, the "loot circle" will automatically begin to fill.
The Chainsaw Elite is like the Super Elite in that they are bigger and take more shots to kill than regular zombie enemies. Unlike Super Elite's who have a machine gun, these enemies wield a Chainsaw. Again they are best taken down with headshots and explosives. Remember to stay close when you kill them as their body only remains on the ground for a couple of seconds before it disappears, press when the prompt appears to loot their body.
A good method for this trophy is in 'Forest of Corpses', where you are in a Lumber Yard. At the end of the path is a room with a Chainsaw Elite. Lead him out of the room and there is logs hanging in the air. Get him under them and shoot the metal winch holding them up to flatten him.

The first time you meet an Chainsaw Elite is in Episode 3, Chapter 3: 'Forest of Corpses'. After killing a zombie under the a truck, it will roll down the hill and the first Chainsaw Elite of the game will come up the hill. These guys are very dangerous, so try to snipe off his face mask whilst avoiding being too close. He will also take a good amount of headshots to go down.
Refer to Elite pickpocket (10G) on best way to loot him.
