:The Flamethrowers are used to melt the ice off of aircraft wings and helicopter blades so they don't crash and I'm not sure, but the shotguns may be used for killing dangerious wildlife.

Well, the rifles (esp. the one carried by the Norwegian) and such firearms could be possibly used for hunting. You know, in case the base is left unattended. - [[User:Kenny99|Kenny99]] 03:05, 25 July 2012 (CDT) | |||

The remington 31 is a Ithaca 37
the flamethrowers are few M2A1-7 and a custom prop flamethrower.
I have to add on the DVD-Laserdisc commentary Carpenter states that it was working Vietnam era flamethrower. They had two. One that worked and one that didn't. The one that did used compressed karosine as a fuel. Carpenter literally had the LAFD standing by when they burnt a "Thing".
Don't know about Palmer's rig. Looked like a de-iceing wand from the 70s.
