editing Making bullet sparks in after effect

Anyone know how to create the sparks bullets make when they hit a metal object? I don't have action essential and need something a bit more customizable. The only tools I have are CC particle world and trapcode particular.

You totally can with particular. Just set the generator to only shoot particles for a frame or two and crank up the count so enough comes out in that frame. Set the life to a second or too. Crank up velocity and gravity, then set the opacity over life to where it fades out over time and the color over life to where it goes from like yellow to orange. Then set the layer transfer mode to add or screen, should look pretty sparky.
