FIRE! Click to listen — The Heavy on his new weapon

”

The Huo Long Heatmaker is a primary weapon for the Heavy. It is a wooden, antique, machine gun with team-colored portions. A traditional Chinese dragon's head is mounted on the muzzle of the gun.

While deployed, a flashing ring of flame and smoke surrounds the user, which will light enemy players on fire and inflict afterburn damage, but won't deal any damage to buildings. However, the Huo Long Heatmaker consumes 6 ammunition per second while spun up, even if not firing.

This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchased Sleeping Dogs on Steam before August 14, 2012.
