Haven't you seen the movies where bullets all create sparks when they hit something.How does a shotgun light the flare?
They have 12 gauge flare cartridges, not sure if they would be S1 or S2 but all installation managers or their second in command have to have a certificate just like we do.
It usually takes them a few goes to light it because the flares drift with the wind and they have to get it to pass through the gas plume coming out of the flare tip, which is obviously quite some distance away.
