When they spend on stupid frivolous shit like this - Elon Musks handicapped flamethrower who is marketed as not a flamethrower and has a range of 2 feet. 500$ each, sold 20.000 so far.
Stupid coastal morons.
>Six months after Elon Musk raised the eyebrows of sane people everywhere by announcing his Boring Co. would sell flamethrowers for $500 a pop, the first 1,000 deliveries were made Saturday for customers who showed up at the company’s headquarters in Hawthorne, Calif. >The flamethrowers went like, well, flaming hotcakes when they went on sale in late January, selling out in just four days. In all, 20,000 were sold, raising about $10 million in revenue for Musk’s tunnel-boring startup. The devices, technically called “Not a Flamethrower” to skirt federal shipping regulations, shoot a two-foot flame. >Despite concerns about the wisdom of allowing personal flamethrowers in wildfire-prone California, state legislators last month shelved legislation that would have required them to come with a safety warning.
>government lets an insane billionaire sell weapons Tell me again how really rich people aren't supported by the state.

>range of 2 feet. 500$ each Just use a can of air freshener from a Family Dollar and a candle lighter for a flame thrower. 500$ is way too much for 2 minutes of fun.
>implying this is bad Do they ship outside the US?

You can always modify it when you get it. Just don't tell the cops or demonstrate it around them.
Samuel Moore
What are you jealous? OP is a massive pussy who wants to live in a bounce castle cause the world is scary to him
David Young
It's bad because I can't sell flamethrowers and he can, literally state allowed monopoly on domestic flamethrowers. You want equality? You want to limit the 1%? Look at the government. This shit almost makes me believe monopolies really are impossible without the state.

>implying you can't easily modify this base flamethrower into a serious weapon >implying that wasn't the plan all along
Kevin Flores
what for? it's not even napalm compatible... might as well buy a proper flamethrower to start with
James Rodriguez
>buy a proper flamethrower to start with It's illegal in some parts and even if it wasn't it would raise suspicion.
Andrew Bell
in most of the US, it's just considered a gardening tool
John Martin
You realize it’s illegal to sell actual flamethrowers without jumping through tons of legal hoops on both the buyer and the sellers side right? This was a fundraising scheme and it worked excellently. Quit being jealous.
Christopher Campbell
You can also buy a weed burner for a tenth of the price and modify it.
>has a range of 2 feet. Get real people, there are decent flamethrowers already on the market ready to be shipped to your house >I got to use one of these last year, can confirm
