I don't like the product but I love their commercials.

My two alltime favorites are:

MR. BACKYARD BUG ZAPPER INVENTOR

Bud Light Presents Real Men of Genius
(Real Men of Genius)

This 4th of July we salute you Mr. Backyard Bug Zapper Inventor
(Mr. Backyard Bug Zapper Inventor)
Not content to harmlessly repel insects with lotion, you discovered a way to fry them with electricity until their bodies explode
(Zap! Ka-boom!)
Ah, the sounds of summer... Crickets chirping, birds singing, the blood curdling scream of a moth having 700 volts of electricity shoot through it's body.
(Music to my ears)
Every night, a magical explosion of exoskeleton and insect goo that can only mean one thing.. summer's here
(Die bugs die)
So crack open an ice cold Bud Light Mr. June Bug Blaster
Then sit back and watch the fireworks
(Mr. Backyard Bug Zapper Inventor)

and

MR. GASOLINE BBQ STARTER

Bud Light Presents Real Men of Genius
(Real Men of Genius)

This Memorial Day we salute you Mr. Gasoline BBQ Starter
(Mr. Gasoline BBQ Starter)
Never mind charcoal chimneys, and easy lighting briquettes. The only way to start a real BBQ is with a gallon of 93 octane and a big book of matches
(Light up the sky)
Who needs eyebrows? You're hungry and you've got 7 pounds of lamb shanks ready to go
(That's a lot of kabobs)
You don't just defy convention, you defy warning labels, and common sense
(Very low I.Q.)
So crack open an ice cold Bud Light O' Prince of the Pyrotechnic, because no one makes a backyard mushroom cloud like you do
(Mr. Gasoline BBQ Starter)

As you can see I have much to much free time at work to find these things on the internet.

Another state employee? What agency? I work for the WV State Tax Dept -- "we make your money work for us." [:D]

To Terminus: I really appreciate the great info you're posting -- for a brief moment, I thought a Molotov Projector might be a tool for a movie critic -- "wanna see me flame this waste of film? Well, here ya go -- "

No problem, Gunny, I like finding this stuff.

As far as I can deduce from the gobbledegook produced by Babel Fish, this thing was based on an industrial machine tool, and fired thick-walled glass balls (ampoules, hence "Ampulomet") filled with White Phosphorous, launched by blank flare gun ammunition. Sounds like a very expensive, and needlessly complicated way to cause serious injury to your own men! [:D]

Haven't you guys played Advanced Squad Leader?

The molotov projector was used by the Soviets in 1942-43 and then discarded. It was not recoilless. The US Army refered to it as a low-trajectory mortar for firng incendiary ampules at AFV. It was smooth-bore and muzzle-loaded. Its use was not widespread but during 42/43 at leat some rifle battalions contained one molotov projector platoon of 2-4 weapons. Photographic evidence suggests it was used in Stalingrad.


Also if you played Combat Mission- Barbarossa to Berlin the molotov projector also appears in the Russian OoB.
