Default FireBalls !
Not the most practical thing in the world but the fun factor on this thing is off the charts! Those fireballs are too fun!

If you've got some flame photos of your own, post them up!

Obviously it's got some burn marks on it, we're just testing out the flame resistant properties of it...so far so good

Well, if a good size fireball is the goal (which is the case when I shoot my AR Pistol) then I don't think it's silly at all I tried two different types of ammo, the one in the pictures, and another type that produced almost none. I'll let you know the details of both later when I get home.

The ammo used in the above pics with my AR pistol was my personal reloads of H335 and a 55gr Hornady FMJ which are pretty much just above a mid-range load. I get noticeable fireballs with that gun even shooting Tula though

Just remembered to check and the ammo that I was using for the big fireballs was:
Federal XM193F
5.56 M193 Ball - 55 grain ammo

I've also tried:
PMC X-Tac
5.56 Nato 62 grain green tip and it gave almost no fire at all...so I won't be using that again
