Shotgun Fire Torch: a stainless head peppered with small shot-hole cutouts, 14 inches tall
The Outdoor Plus Shotgun fire torch is a handcrafted stainless steel head with dozens of small square shot-hole cutouts that let flames sparkle through. It’s 14 inches tall and just under 4 inches across, with a cylindrical shape that mounts atop a post beside a pool, path, or patio. The steel withstands heat and weather.
Choose the Original base, which bolts to any 2.5-inch post and has a built-in needle valve for adjusting flame height, or the TOP-Lite base that threads onto a half-inch gas pipe. Order it for natural gas or propane. Prefer neat vertical slots? Consider the Vent fire torch with louvers. The Shotgun fire torch ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What does the Shotgun Fire Torch look like?
A clean vertical barrel – the Shotgun is the most streamlined head in TOP’s torch line, a slender 3 3/4-inch stainless column that fires its flame straight up with no ornament to soften it. If your architecture is minimalist, this is the torch that will not argue with it.
What SKUs and specs cover the Shotgun torch?
The Shotgun measures 3 3/4 inches across and 14 inches tall, rated to 20,000 BTU. Buy it as the match-lit Original (OPT-TT22M), the TOP-Lite electronic-ignition build (OPT-TCH22SS), or the complete liquid propane torch kit (OPT-TPK22LP).
Why choose the Shotgun over patterned torches?
Because sometimes the flame should be the whole show. With no cutouts or filigree, the Shotgun presents pure fire on a minimal column – the strongest choice alongside modern glass, board-formed concrete, and dark steel, where decorative heads would read fussy.
How do I light and control the Shotgun?
The Original OPT-TT22M is match lit: valve open, long lighter to the burner, then trim the flame with the built-in needle valve until it sits exactly where you want. The TOP-Lite OPT-TCH22SS version is designed for electronic ignition instead.
How should Shotgun torches be spaced along a modern landscape?
Precisely – regular intervals suit its character. Try 8-foot centers along a wall or auto court, or a strict pair at the entry axis, echoing the geometry of a linear gas fire pit below. Even spacing is what makes the minimal head look intentional.
Will the Shotgun rust or weather badly?
No – the Shotgun’s high-grade stainless steel is specified for permanent exposure to heat, rain, and sun. Shut the gas ahead of storms because downpours can douse the flame; beyond that, an occasional wipe keeps the barrel showroom-clean.
What fuel does the Shotgun torch use?
Your call at checkout – each Shotgun is built to order for liquid propane or natural gas, with the OPT-TPK22LP kit as the complete LP route. There is no swapping fuels afterward in the field, so match the order to your site’s supply.
