![]() ![]() If you're going to bring up the balance argument, I don't think muzzle flash is the way to fix this. ![]() I really can't fathom how he misunderstood the question. Why is Vondy so dead set of the muzzle flash when the majority of the community want it reduced. A rifle barrel gets incredibly hot pretty quickly - I've burnt my hand on one (when I was younger and less experienced - its only something you do once!) and I can only describe the sound as like bacon hitting a hot pan - its not pleasant, but the main thing is, a smoking barrel/handguard looks cool.Surely they can reduce the flash drawn on the shooter's gun in first person POV while keeping it the same from a third person POV. The only other thing I'd like to see is the weapons start to produce a bit of smoke from the barrel when they overheat after heavy use - you watch any of the "AK47 Tested to Destruction" videos on YouTube (there are lots) and you'll see this. a rifle that is fresh out of the water would produce a bit of steam, so there is the potential that you could simulate that. The only thing you will get is a big smoke ploom from a freshly cleaned rifle that has a bit too much oil residue in the barrel whilst ArmA 3 is realistic, I think expecting BI to replicate that is a bit much! After heavy use, the barrel will also glow dark orange-red on LMGs/GPMGs.Ĭurrent military-grade ammunition produces very little smoke in my experience. The flash hider on the A2 is pretty good I havent used the Vortex flash hider that the newer "gucci" rifles that have the rail systems and newer optics.Īt night the flashes are f**king bright - brief - but bright. I cant say I have ever seen much of a flash when I have used the L85A2. I dont know about anyone else, but I have noticed that you can get the ocassional round that does produce a bit of a flash. I think it looks pretty close to the mark actually. We have similar 7.62x39 but Lapua produces ammo we use and it's pretty high grade.ĭaytime, you probably wont see much of a flash. I don't remember how it behaved in dark at livefire exercises or in firing range. On firing range with live ammo there is no smoke of flash at daylight. My Army experiences are similar, but muzzle flash is pretty complicated matter (when put into practice) and in exercises there's blankadapter attached to rifle/LMG which affects to things quite a lot by increasing flash as burning pieces of wood are scattering into sides of rifle's muzzle. But i guess Barnaul just would have needed longer barrel or silencer for all powder to burn inside barrel instead of open air, it has heavier bullet (11gr) with seemingly same muzzlespeeds as with Lapua and Sako (850-900m/s). I use mostly Lapua and Sako which burns very cleanly and there is no smoke or flash. Could be flash too, i havent' much paid attention to it and it often isn't as clear to shooter as smoke. I've had Russian Barnaul for my modernized Mosin-Nagant which had tons of smoke. Flash is alot about rifle's parameters, which is often issue with carbines and such as they have considerable shorter barrel compared to rifles to which ammo was originally introduced, so fumes for ignition don't all burn up in barrel. Which was problem from US point of view (not sure about soviets) as their powder wasn't nearly as smokeless. Germans had practically smokeless powder already back in ww2. I think US currently is introducing ammo which is pretty much smokeless, but they have lagged behind with that for decades. There isnt any smoke visible, but there is a buttload of flash.ĭepends. Which is me, firing a vz.58 with military surplus ammo. It is my general experience that military grade ammo is moderately smokey, certainly more than we're seeing atm.Īs for muzzle flash, let me repost this old gem: Protip: "military" grade ammo sits somewhere between "cheap shit" and " really cheap shit" ![]()
