Flamethrower ownership is generally legal in the United States without requiring any sort of background check. This is America, and freedom is something we stand for.
As the product name states, it is simply a long-range torch. However, Maryland and California do have restrictions regarding such devices. The city of Warren, Michigan also prohibits possession via local ordinance.
In Maryland, flamethrowers are outright prohibited to possess due to falling under the state’s definition of a destructive device (not the federal definition).
In California, non-stationary devices that are designed/intended to emit a burning stream at least 10 feet are prohibited without a license issued by the State Fire Marshal. We do sell CA Compliant Flame Throwers.
Check with your local laws. It is your responsibility to understand and adhere to all relevant regulations.
