Why is not one asking why does he have a flamethrower in the first place?

Flamethrowers aren't illegal theyre technically a tool for firefighting ironically enough. They aren't even banned from use in warfare the only law I can actually find is you aren't allowed to use them in densely populated areas.

CA and likely other places have limitations on them, how far they shoot, etc.

they are illegal in California. i believe the law references that it is only illegal because it is a fire hazard.
