One of a kind, extremely rare, very scarce. Maybe the only fully functional unit with the original ignition system or (matches) in the United States or world for that matter.
All original, recently restored to museum presentation. Wand has been restored with upgrades meaning it is now rebuild- able.
Unit comes with two wands one original Aeroproducts Allison Div, GMC M7 to be fired with matches or a fabricated wand for (regular) use. The fabricated wand uses a MAPP gas torch to ignite the fuel stream. The fabricated wand has been test fired three times and works perfectly.
The package includes everything pictured and more. The rarest items included are the matches, sealed can of Vietnam era Napalm mix dated 10-71 and the brand new tools. The last two items I've only seen in books. Extra Napalm mix in coffee can as well.
Matches: there's a total of fifteen matches. The matches consist of a cylinder with five matches per cylinder. There's one sealed can of two cylinders and an open can of one complete cylinder. The matches are Vietnam era dated 06-67 for the Vietnam War collectors. Eighteen years ago when I used one cylinder it worked like the day it was made. Each match has a burn time of 6-12 seconds, plenty of time to dump a full load of fuel.
Fuels: i have only fired Napalm once and the recoil was tremendous and extremely hot. Keep in mind you're forcing fuel at approximately 300 PSI out of an orifice the size of a pencil. I have fired gasoline and a motor oil mix only once, extremely hot. The fuel of choice is Diesel. It's safer, throws well and doesn't seem quite as hot. Depending on wind direction the diesel can be thrown 50-60 feet. I have been using diesel for years.
Shipping: Local pickup is preferred but shipping can be arranged. Shipping will only be conducted by me or a well known shipper of my choice simply because of the pristine condition of the unit and I don't have much faith in the large well known shippers. Damage of this unit is not an option. Shipping charge is negotiable depending on price paid. If full price is agreed on then there will be no extra fee for shipping.
Buyer/s: I will insist that the buyer will sign a full release of liability with a notary present. The purchase of this unit is for display purposes only. However, if the buyer intends to use it to its full extent the buyer needs to understand this weapon can be extremely hazardous to the operator if proper procedures are not followed. I will provide training at no extra cost depending on price paid, I also have several manuals on the unit as well but they do not cover everything. If this unit is to be demonstrated/fired somewhere other than the state of AZ keep in mind the (where) needs to be virtually void of any vegetation. If the buyer wants the unit demonstrated with the original wand and matches only one match will be used out of the open can. This can be performed at no additional charge depending on price paid.
