M1 Flamethrower

While hunting the Ymir in the countryside, one Sicilian police officer has an M1 Flamethrower.

The flamethrower-wielding officer takes up his position as they sight the Ymir.

In a subsequent shot, there is a continuity break when the policeman is replaced with a totally different actor. The new 'actor' is probably a stuntman who knew how to properly operate the flamethrower. As a side note, all it takes is one malfunction to spook most actors when operating a device like a flamethrower. Nowadays films use stunt trained personnel from the beginning when using live incendiary devices like a flamethrower.
