Hey guys,
I would like a flamethrower, or parts for one. Does not matter which country/era the parts or gun are from. Live or not.
Also, RPG-7 complete or parts. No live weapons; just dewats.

Oh, I don't want plastic junk; I would real parts or demilled weapons. I could buy RPG-2 parts from Knob Creek, but I would prefer the RPG-7 variant. Same with flamethrowers.

Yeah, Northridge has all the parts for the RPG-7 except for the "tube." I might have to plunk down the $250 for all the parts, then weld and grind a tube, then fit all the parts to it. RPG-7's go for over $1500 these days....
I wonder if a home-made RPG like the one I am considering; would be classified as a restricted weapon? I don't care anyways; not like I have the ammo.

just curious, do you remember what he was asking for it ?
I don't know what I'd do with the thing and don't think there are even legal in PA.

What's neat about a flame thrower is that it's not a destructive device, it's not a firearm, and it's not a weapon. It's just a flame thrower. No license, nothing. Just pay your money and carry it home.

What do they use for fuel?

An inert gas to pressurize the tanks, which can be filled with gasoline, but a thicker, viscous (and safer no doubt) blend of something resembling (napalm?) is used by the military. I might just use gasoline; thicken it up with soap-chips so that it will burn longer and stick to whatever it lands on.
Yeah, flamethrowers are completely unrestricted! Hoorah! God bless America; great stuff! All the teenagers on youtube with their homemade flamethrowers would be in jail if that stuff was illegal anyways.

I'm pretty sure Pennsylvania has a state restriction on flame throwers, specifically "incendiary devices".

They are not restricted by federal law, but I know California restricts them, and charges possession as a misdemeanor. A flamethrower (according to California Law) is "any non stationary and transportable device designed or intended to emit or propel a burning stream of combustible or flammable liquid a distance of at least 10 feet." Flamethrowers are not restricted, because they are necessary for agriculture and land management tasks, to set controlled burns, etc. Plus, you can buy them in Home Depot (the propane ones).
Anyways, I live in NY, and they are not restricted here.
