There is a reason an M16 comes equipped with a flash suppressor. It was to stop the enemy from keying in on your position when you were in a night time fire fight.
A lot of it also has to do with lighting. A buddy of mine and I did a lot of photography at the range once. We used different lighting, different ammo, slow-speed, fast-speed. We were able to capture a lot of cool stuff. There was a lot of sparks emitted. With less light, they are more prominent. Digital photos and video capture stuff that the human eye doesn't necessarily see.
The shorter the barrels keep getting, the more unburned granules of propellant will be expelled into the air. The 5.56 was designed to burn in a 20 inch barrel, and the newest version of the M4 is under 14.

Sparks are just unburned/ buring gun powder.
I have an Enfield 303 that doubles as a flamethrower.
apparantly can happen, depends on type of ammo, cleanliness of the barrel, any jagged edges inside barrel etc

That would have your ass in a sling if you did that at my indoor range.
His ass or arm? 😂

My 10.5 is a flamethrower without the can.
