Any tips on adding gun fire in post production?

Maya Unlimited has a thing called Maya Live which can track the camera in live footage - create your muzzle flash as a particle emmitter, much like you would a missile trail or anything like that, then key the Maya camera to the live footage camera so the two track correctly - thus, when you render your scene with no background, you can overlay it in After Effects, etc and the flash will follow the gun muzzle....
