Why don't modern rifles have volley sights?

Especially considering how much volume of fire a modern Semi-automatic or automatic rifle can put out. Volley fire on entrenched positions could be a good way to break the moral of the defenders and even kill some of them.

With all of the various rail attachment points, it would not be hard to mount a volley sight to the rifle.

So why are there no modern volley sights.

Because machine guns, mortars, artillery, tanks and airstikes exist.

Because machine guns and artillery work better. You killed a thread, retard.

There is no reason you cannot supplement those support assets by giving the average soldier the ability to volley fire.

No reason you can't =/= a reason why you should

Because the average fire team lacks the amount of people necessary to get an effective volume of fire.

Isn't the modern equivalent just GL sights?

Now we're talking.

The minimum number of soldiers for a us battalion is 330 soldiers, but often much more than that. You'd be ok with a platoon or company

Kind of surprised volley sights didn't pop up as a ready made solution to the Afghanistan pop shots people keep bitching about as an excuse to replace with 308. With Picatinny rails, it is easy to mount a replacement rear BUIS that can accomodate extreme range area shooting
