How can I tell if I have military grade ammo loaded?
When playing Metro 2033 it is possible to load military grade bullets into your weapon that do more damage, but the bullets are also used as currency so they are to be used wisely. However, the somewhat annoying way the game handles loading ammo is that it loads military grade ammo if you hold down the reload button. It seems to be very sensitive and I sometimes end up loading military ammo when I wanted to load normal ammo - and waste valuable ammo as a result. How can I tell if I have accidentally loaded the wrong ammo type?
