Yes, I have fired the rifle with and without ear protection, ball and blank.

Listen to this video of an AR-15 firing. From the position of someone behind the weapon - i.e, you, in game, the weapon makes a very small report. The sound we hear is some of the sound of the weapon firing, the sound of the working parts moving, and the weapon's report echoing back off the surroundings.

Either way, anyone voting yes should be ashamed.

You can manufacture rounds by hand, providing you have the materials. Maybe the devs can add picking up your ejected brass, and making crude reloads with scrap metal and explosives scavenged from flares. You could also make proper reloads providing you have the required tools (tumbler etc), and high quality materials. These hand loads would be less accurate, especially the crude ones. The crude loads would have a higher chance of being overcharged or undercharged, meaning the weapon would not cycle correctly.

L85 and L86 variants. Possibly a Minimize too. We already have gear suggesting the UK was involved in the initial incident - Assault Vests, DPM camoflauge etc. We should also have the weapons used. Add PLCE webbing, too. -
The sound does not need changing. Having fired a similar rifle, the L98A2, in real life, the M4 sound is perfectly adequate. Remember, it's only a 5.56mm round - that's roughly the size of a .22 round, just with a larger charge behind it. When you are firing the weapon, the sound is directed mostly to your direct front and sides, you hear relatively little of the report. What you do hear, however, is the working parts moving.
