KRIEG M40 Flamethrower
A flamethrower employed by the Paternian Armed Forces, it takes some of its ergonomics off the M18 rifle, and even shares some parts with it. However, it is a vastly different weapon. Designed as a compact flamethrower for shock troops, it can fire a half-second burst at ranges of up to 35 meters. Firing is first done by twisting the nozzle 45 degrees counterclockwise and pulling sharply back, discharging a .38 caliber magnesium flare loaded inside, lasting up to 30 seconds. If the flare fails to ignite, then the nozzle can be removed and a fresh cartridge loaded. Pulling the trigger will discharge the napalm backed by integrated compressed nitrogen gas canister. Once the fuel is consumed, the operator is to expel the excess nitrogen gas in order to both clear the gun of fuel and to extinguish the remains of the igniter cartridge. Another igniter cartridge is then loaded. The flamethrower tank is then detached from the gun through the use of the same magazine release on an M18 rifle, and unhooked from the barrel support, much like the magazine of the IRL PP-19 Bizon. A fresh canister is then loaded in the same process, except inversed and without using the magazine release.

@MrMecha Thanks!
@JohnMSmith It's a bit on the crispy side.
So this is why our troops have turned into bacon...
Sure! @Gmanndo1000
@Pilotmario could I buy a shipment of these?
@Gmanndo1000 yup.
Seems like these would be useful on snowstone for burning up troops.
