fire and rescue
I have a list of various hazardous situations (both real accounts and theoretical) which face firemen and rescue services. One of them is "beskjutning av gasflaskor". At a first glance I take that to mean "firing of gas bottles" but I am not sure I understand.

Comment: "I guess so. It just seemed like a strange thing to do in a literal sense. I thought maybe it was shop-talk for something else. Thank you very much."
