Chinese type 53 fireball

Post by Adam_9130 »

Im not sure if this is the right place to post this, I'm still fairly new to the forum. The past few times I've gone shooting I've noticed fireballs shooting out the barrel. Just thought I'd post some pictures that I was able to take.
Enjoy!!

Yep, those rounds were originally designed for a lot more barrel length, where the power was consumed inside the barrel, but the carbine fire balls always excite people! :thumbsup:

The fireballs and concussion are to get people's attention at the range. By the way, that looks like a very nice T-53.
