Moot. Retainers cannot equip. The weapon the Ghoul is "using" is still
possessed by the Ghoul's employer (card text).

If a retainer employed by the bearer of an Improvised Flamethrower is hit
with ranged damage at long range, nothing happens to the IF nor to the
minion holding it.

The Ghoul Retainer is never 'equipped' with the weapon. he merely gets to
use
it if the minion bearing it isn't using it.

He takes an amount of damage equal to the R damage of the strike targetting
him, i guess. the flamethrower will not blow up (unless the minion also
takes
damage at long range from the opposing minion. environmental damage, eg:
carrion crows, will not set it off).
A Ghoul Retainer is never considered the "bearer" of the weapon, he merely
uses it if it's lying around unwanted by it's bearing minion.
so even if the minion equipped with (and thus 'bearing') the improvised
flamethrower isn't using it, if he, the minion, is hit with damage at range
(from the opposing minion), the flamethrower explodes, as per card text.
'bearer' always refers to the minion equipped with the equipment, not any
retainers he/she has.
'Minions' are allies and vampires. 'Retainers' are not minions.
hope that helps clear things up.
