The ones you posted are "Inferno" pistols, essentially the Pistol variant of the Melta

@Magos Squid "The Life Raft" I got u fam. A hand-flamer is pretty piss-easy, you can run a tube up your sleeve to a napalm reservoir rather than pressurizing a can of fuel, and then dress up a propane tank as the fuel can to run your burner.

Now the only problem is range

What are you looking for?

Assuming we're using something close to napalm

Thankfully we can use the bulk of the pistol for a pressurizing pump

Probably something CO2 based since that'd cool, compress, and be easily replaced on the fly while staying relatively compact.

~~Flamers are 8", which is like 2/3 of effective pistol range~~

Hmmm, effective pistol range

25 yards

or so

That's gonna be a stretch

22m in real people units.

Would CO2 work as a stabilizer within the weapon? Keeping the fuel from igniting as easily?

Diesel napalm is stable enough

Because napalm reacts with oxygen right

God no

Nope

Oh ok I'm thinking of something else

I mean you could probably dope it with aluminum powder or something

But that'd be kinda stupid

Yeah, that wouldn't work

So anyway, we're looking at 14m for a hand unit

To be close to TT range

25 yards of range would kill your CO2 real quick

Make the CO2 easy to reload, it makes that an option, though you have to carry CO2 canisters

Well

Maybe not

If you use diesel fuel you'd need a magnesium torch to light it effectively

A tank setup but that's going to get heavy quick

Which means the fuel can can be a CO2 reservoir

Feed the co2 in

Nah the hand flamer is fed by a worn fuel reserve

CO2 would be on the gun

Otherwise you'd lose the coolant properties as the gas expands down the tube

You can easily run a foot or so of tubing around the critical parts and then feed it in to the compression stage

Only downside is a slight delay when you fire

But it's a functional showpiece so that's irrelevant

Is the torch the simplest part? You can just mount a modified consumer end/industrial torch for that.

I mean yeah, propane torch or magnesium torch it's pretty simple.

Just slave it to the trigger
