Those flashes are a function of the fact the British .303's are API, (armour piercing inciendary) and the flash is a function of 0.5 grams of SR 365 (a composition including barium nitrate on the tip of the bullet exploding on contact. It's designed to set off fires.

The German 7.92 mm MG rounds were not API, just regular AP, so you won't see flashes when they hit. The German 20mm will of course, explode with a large flash on contact, due to the fact they are hollow and packed with explosive.
