      Most likely by design from the wad when attached to heavy slugs going fast. Russians love that extra fear effect on weapons. Katyusha (Stalin's organ) and Kalashnikov (spraying barrage plakata) being the best examples. RPG is not far behind either being the most feared yet cheap weapon ever made, if you have the guts to stand up and shoot it.
