Taking flash enhancement to new levels....

Will attach to any firearm with a lower rail.

20 pounds dry weight. Designed with the rental market in mind and has layers of safety. Although I must say when I was burning a brush pile with it was more than a little handy...

Has a keyed power switch and can only be armed with the key fob remote....

Meaning the Range Safety Officer can make it hot when and only when he wants it hot. OR shut down any muzzle sweepers or unsafe clients.

Nothing quite like the sight and sound of 40 foot fireball coming out the front of an AR....

I would have sent this out to SHOT but I suspect demonstrations would be frowned upon.

While kinda lame as a AR15 attachment

A stand alone version would be kick ass

It needs a side rail adapter so we can still use the 40mm.

How much and where do I send the money for one?

It's built in! No shit.

Can be canted 45 degrees....

The mount added 2 more pounds but is infinitely adjustable to fit any firearm and to do exactly as you propose....

Hold three gallons of fuel (Gasoline or up to 1/3 diesel or kerosene). Propane is just for the pilot flame (which has it's own trigger and safety).

"Think of it as an adult squirt gun with a pilot light."

Oh and it will quick disconnect from the firearm by flipping two releases.

Fuel pumped rather than pressurized?

Correct. Negative pressure until the high performance fuel pump in the attachment. Unlike an over pressure system this system will just stop if anything fails...

That being said, I'd like to see what a Dragon's Breath round in 40mm would look like. But I suppose with the barrel being aluminum it would be a one shot deal, unless you like an M203 with a 4" barrel.

I've been wanting to build a pumped flamethrower for some time. I just don't know how big of a high pressure fuel pump I should buy. What GPH at what pressure, etc.

That's cool.

But I'm not exactly sure what the AR-15 has to do with anything.

We once developed a flame throwing bayonet for WW I. Doughboy was to get close and then give a blast, startling Jerry, and then while Jerry is startled, pig-stick him. Read about it in Brophy's Book on the 03 Springfield.

Flamethrower for close in targets. AR for further away targets.

Perhaps we could mount one on an AR10? Or would that be too much weight?

Looks small enough to mount on your forearm.

Can be found on GB but basic tank/backpack starts out like this.

Really suggest you fuse both sides of your LIPO battery and use automotive relays for both the main on power and the pump.

Batteries/charger are from hobby king and get the "boom preventer" for $4.95
