Well that's disappointing, but at least I won't have to cross my legs

It's crazy that this weapon is classified as a tool in most of the U.S. and is therefore not as restricted as normal firearms.

It's one of the most horrible handheld weapons if not the most.

Didn�t a guy in Wisconsin or something get in trouble for clearing their driveway of snow with a flamethrower? Seems like that would be a the best way to deal with it to be honest. Start making some Nod flame tanks and sell them to municipalities! Dump some salt behind them and you�re good to go!

The city workers used a flamethrower to kill weeds coming up through the cracks in the sidewalk when I lived in NH

Seemed like a great idea. (the flamethrowers did NOT shoot 100' gouts of fire as in that image)

I personally use an obelisk of light to clear snow with minimal complaints

It is certainly a very horrible way to kill people but probably not the most effective way to kill lots of people as you only get a very short duration of fire in the backpack, and also you can achieve a similar effect with a petrol bomb. Also it's kind of hard to conceal it, and if you don't give a poo poo about being found out there's lots of ways you could kill someone so they're probably less dangerous to others on the whole in a country with more guns than people. More dangerous to the operator though.

I just don't get why there's so few restrictions, it doesn't matter that there's more effective ways to kill someone, it's still a deadly weapon.

I don't really agree with the gun laws in the U.S. either but at least there's some control over guns, if someone hits you with a flamethrower you're in for a very painful death and it's a weapon only a sociopathic sadist would use.

They�re also not spewing the same kind of sticky ultra flammable stuff that military flame throwers used to use. It�s like a bigger hairspray flamethrower.

Wouldn't this just melt the snow which would then refreeze to form a slick and dangerous icy surface? (unless that's what you're going for)

Yes it would, you could potentially evaporate that water to avoid that but I wouldn't recommend doing it. You'll be going from ice to steam and just wrecking your concrete

As long as the temperature is above 32F (0C) that shouldn't be an issue. Snow can still take a while to melt naturally at those temperatures though.

That�s what the salt trucks behind the flame tanks are for guys. Please reread my original proposal.

They're useful in agriculture and pretty sure there have been zero flamethrower murders in the last few decades, so its not an actual problem that needs fixing

Mafic Rhyolite: Nov 7, 2020; by Hand Knit

I mean as a weapon of terror flamethrowers could theoretically be pretty effective, but nobody's really using them because they're dangerous to the user and difficult to use and expensive, it makes way more sense to go down to the gun show in texas or whatever and buy an AR15 or something if you want to do a mass shooting. I can't say I really worry that much about unrestricted flamethrowers.

Has any company that sells actual flamethrowers started labelling them "Not-Not-A-Flamethrower" yet?

im pooping!: Nov 17, 2006

Philip Gibbs, one of five official English reporters embedded with troops during World War I wrote a very cool book called "Now it can be told" about his experiences as one of the earliest war correspondents on the Western front. He talks about his experience in Hooge, an area of the Ypres salient in July 1915. After weeks of constant shelling and mining and undermining, (where the enemies would literally tunnel underneath your trench and blow it up from underneath), there was a quiet morning where the overwhelmed soldiers were trying to catch their breath.

from Now it Can be Told:
--------------------------------------
On the morning of July 30th there was a strange lull of silence after a heavy bout of shells and mortars. Men of the K.R.R. raised their heads above broken parapets and crawled out of shell-holes and looked about. There were many dead bodies lying around, and wounded men were wailing. The unwounded, startled by the silence, became aware of some moisture falling on them; thick, oily drops of liquid.

"What in hell's name--?" said a subaltern.

One man smelled his clothes, which reeked of something like paraffin.

Coming across from the German trenches were men hunched up under some heavy weights. They were carrying cylinders with nozzles like hose-pipes. Suddenly there was a rushing noise like an escape of air from some blast-furnace. Long tongues of flame licked across to the broken ground where the King's Royal Rifles lay.

Some of them were set on fire, their clothes burning on them, making them living torches, and in a second or two cinders.

It was a new horor of war--the Flammenwerfer.

Some of the men leaped to their feet, cursing, and fired repeatedly at the Germans carrying the flaming jets. Here and there the shots were true. A man hunched under a cylinder exploded like a fat moth caught in a candle-flame. But that advancing line of fire after the long bombardment was too much for the rank and file, whose clothes were smoking and whose bodies were scorched. In something like a panic they fell back, abandoning the cratered ground in which their dead lay.
---------------------------------------
in other words, flamethrowers are totally hosed

Works well if you live somewhere damp enough that you're not risking a bushfire every time you do it.
