No. It's a POS. It's not like vidya where 1 press = 3 rnds.
You have to hold the fricking trigger, and if you don't complete the burst, it'll finish on next press.
Germans did testing and found two round burst is very effective.
Three round burst was too much.
Russians tried and failed at two round burst AKs. It exists bit is too complicated and expensive to mass produce. Field stripping for cleaning was way to time consuming. >3 round burst
Idiotic notion that 3 rounds would save ammo and still offer full auto when burst firing in FA is just as effective. While maintaing FA.
>Russians tried and failed at two round burst AKs. It exists bit is too complicated and expensive to mass produce
I've always found this interesting, is the RPM really so fast that the two rounds strike the EXACT same spot on the target, before the recoil from the first shot begins? Or is that fuddlore/urban legend bullshit?
There was a testing video on it. It was completely off, like at least 3 inches from each other from 15 yards
Both projectiles are not supposed to hit the exact same spot. The idea is that, by putting one projectile where you're aiming and another in close proximity, you are substantially increasing the probability of scoring a hit. This is the same idea as the multi-projectile duplex loads from project SALVO, except provides one projectile that will go exactly where the sights say it will, instead of two that go somewhere in that vicinity.

It exists, I got one from this site.
FA feels good but wastes ammo. It's easily to get caught up spraying a treeline and blowing through magazines when single fire has the same suppressive effect.
Three round burst gives you a similar option that doesn't go through ammo so quickly. US Army's moved away from it but tries to train everything on single fire.
Burst fire is shit, and full auto usually is too. 99% of the time, infantrymen should keep their guns on semi-automatic. There are only two circumstances when non-belt-fed fully automatic fire is indicated: 1) your position is being overrun in a rout and 2) you need to clear a building room by room.
It's better suited to a conscription based army.
Would well trained, professional troops still mag dump shit in the heat of a fight?
Yeah, probably, but the problem would likely be infinitely worse with troops that are poorly trained and may have never even fired a gun before being drafted.
Whole point of automatic fire is suppression, forcing a pause every 3 or so rounds makes that less effective.

Is it true the burst cam means you get a different weight trigger press if you switch to single?
How does the rifle know it fired three rounds?

It was made after Nam because US mobiks would spray and pray. Where do you think 80s movies got it from?

Semi, Burst and Full is fine because you aren't missing anything, Semi and Burst is shit because sometimes you want to mag dump.
No, it was a good idea, that in reality was shit. No reason to keep talking about.

Good idea in concept, bad execution.
FAMAS 3 round burst is actually pretty good, though 5 round burst would be better.
>Be Amerifat
>Not allowed FA
Kek are they the only nation that uses burp mode?
Imagine being so incompetent your not trusted with full auto.
>Be Europoor
>Not allowed to own guns at all
