Easier to point at the attachment and perform C-o:
C-o runs the command gnus-mime-save-part-and-strip
which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-art'.
It is bound to C-o, <menu-bar> <mime part> <save and strip>.
(gnus-mime-save-part-and-strip)
You are prompted for a file name. Later you can delete the file, or
perhaps use /dev/null as file name directly (untested). You end up in
edit message mode, so you have to do C-c C-c afterwards to exit that.
Sounds not too hard to write a short piece of code, or even a keyboard
macro, to do all that.
