    I’m not sure how many napalm bombs the US military has, but I’m pretty sure that they don’t have tons of flamethrowers.

    /unjerk so googling around slows that the US military stopped using them in the 1970s. TIL.

    Say that three times fast and a SIG sales rep appears behind you.

      I thought that they still used them for destroying some munitions? Like, those burn pits in Iraq that caused so many cases of cancer? IDK.

      You can quite legally buy them in the US though. They’re pricey, but, hey, you never know, right?

        And you’re certainly free to fabricate one!*

          I’m pretty sure they count as destructive devices, but I’d be lying if I said child me didn’t have a lot of fun with redneck napalm.
