The Fire Piston was a truly ingenious invention, which makes the modern equivalent look pretty primitive. Thanks Prometheus.
Hmmm... hybridize this with a Zero Blaster, put something flammable in the tank... Flaming Ring Shooter! Whoo!

Great link. My family lives outside Bozeman near Bob Perkins, or, "Atlatl Bob". I wasn't surprised to learn that he makes fire pistons though he is more famous for his primitive weapons.
