Because.
Also, flamethrower aren’t considered weapons by the government, so the only states that limits you from buying one is California and Ohio and Maryland banned them.
In most if not all states, if you have an AAA membership, you can do your DMV stuff at AAA offices and dodge the DMV entirely. The lines are way better.
In my area, the DMV is actually quite pleasant. I’ve had to go like 2-3x ever? And each time was a 15 min adventure:
registered my car from out of state
bought a car from a local private seller - I brought them with me to finalize the transfer
bought a car from an out of state private seller (my brother), just brought the signed title
Or emissions checks can be submitted at the check station for $8 or filed online for free, so there’s no reason for most people to go to the DMV. In fact, most other stuff can be done online too.
It honestly takes longer for me to get there (like 15 min drive) than to actually get my business sorted. It’s one of the better run agencies in the state.
That said, the DOL division sucks. We don’t even require in person renewals, but the two times I had to go sucked (when I first moved here, and for my wife to get her license transferred). It’s a much smaller office with far more people waiting.
I have a DMV that’s never busy around me too, at the cost of being further out of my way (even more so now that I’ve moved even farther from it). But it’s worth being able to walk in and go right to a counter (without an appointment even!) instead of waiting 8+ fucking hours starting at 5am like the one in my actual city.
California allows roofers to have flamethrowers. They use them for curing something in the roofing tiles(? I don’t know the proper term for those things. They’re basically cardboard covered in tar and gravel, possibly a thin layer of asphalt?).
It was a bit unnerving the first few times I heard the roofers doing their thing.
No they’re not. The ATF does not consider flamethrower a firearm and there exists no country wide law about flamethrower, and by law, even a felon can own a fully working flamethrower.

Ohio has a ban too? The company that makes these is based in Ohio lol
Of course they are…
Not a ban, a restriction. Like California, you need a permit. Sorry if I made that confusing.
Ok new life goal. Be that guy at the DMV with a permit for a flamethrower arguing with the civil servant that “because it is cool” is a valid reason

They’re called shingles, asphalt shingles being the most common in most parts of the US because they’re relatively inexpensive.
Considered firearms.

Right. I’m saying that you wanted to use the term “firearm”, not “weapon”.
Ok how the hell did Ohio limit flamethrowers? We’re the Florida of the north
Apparently the company is even based here in Cleveland
