I just ignore the feds. They love to make laws and regulations, but they have little ability to enforce them. A law without enforcement is the same as no law. When it comes to LO vs HO explosives, I have no interest in HO, so I’m not likely to draw attention to myself, because LO explosives are a waste of time and effort for bad guys wanting to destroy stuff. Flash, Thermite, Thermate, … they’re not a threat to anybody, except, perhaps the occasional dumbass who blows off his own hand from being stupid. No mass casualties. Move along.

For the rockets, you basically contact them and get a waiver for a certain altitude and radius from the launch site. (Cylinder shape) Don’t launch while planes are visible. A notice to airmen is issued, but I’m not sure by whom. However, small plane pilots seldom check and will fly over to look at interesting things like rocket launches.

Where you run into trouble is commerce and storage. You can manufacture explosives without a license, for example to remove trunks or damns from your property, but you still have to meet storage requirements. The only way to circumvent that is to not store it. When you need it, manufacture what you need and fully exend it on the range the same day. Make it ON SITE only after you know the weather won’t interfere with your range work, and then use it all.

It's an explosive, but not a destructive device.

Combining the two components of binary explosives on government properties used to require a license to manufacture explosives. I used to do a lot of "recreational" blasting. In Arizona one only needed to be 18, not a felon, and sign for it. I was required to get a "permit to transport explosives" in the city of Phoenix. The local bomb squad gave it to me. I was also issued a permit to transport and use explosives in Multnomah County Oregon. I would show up in my Nissan Sentra and get 200 lbs. of stumping powder and leave with placards on all sides, detonators on floor in back, and the four 50# boxes of HE in the trunk. I couldn't believe they would pay me to remove stumps by blasting! I would have paid them, as I enjoyed it so. On the forms where it asked where I would store said powder and caps. I would write "to be used immediately." I never died or went to jail. Never even hurt myself or others! Let powder do the work. As a character in a movie said: "There are few problems in life that cannot be solved with a well placed charge of High Explosives."

Why is it amount of explosive and not RE factor that makes something a destructive device?

KZread keeps recommending videos about things that go big bang, and I can’t help but wonder if I’m being trapped. Lol

Yep

Isn’t it the “ATF&E”?, and I believe they classify black powder is as “flammable”, not an explosive, ie burns really fast, not going from a solid to a gas, skipping the burning phase like an explosive. I’m still trying to figure this stuff out.

What if you use black powder in a 40mm m203?

So what is the magazine thing you are talking about

So, tad confused here. Would blasting on private land for the purpose of non-commercial, pleasure prospecting fall within the "sporting uses" category?

So I have been looking for black powder for my muzzle loading rifle. Is there anyone in the state of Oklahoma that can sell me a pound of 3F and a pound of 2F? Fewer gun and reloading stores are handling it because of the storage requirements specific for Black Powder.

So a .54 caliber tompson center renagade rifle is not for sporting purposes?

Gotta curious question for anyone who may know the answer? I live in a state where you can buy tanerite targets. I haven't bought any yet because my cousin bought some and was shooting it and got a visit from law enforcement. He was lucky the let him off with a warning but yeah he was informed that it was legal to have it in this state but shooting it was a no no here. Now the state beside us it's not an issue you can have all the fun you want with it. My question is if your not from that state can you still use the targets being from another state without getting into legal trouble? Might sound like a dumb question but it's one I don't know the answer to and I'm not afraid to ask for that knowledge. Don't want to buy the stuff and just have it collecting dust and waisting money on something I won't get to enjoy.

so competitive live grenade corn hole would be considered sporting purposes lol! in that case would you need a permit to use black powder?

So how do you go about getting your FEL? I'm well versed with demo from the army, but I would love to get out and work with it.

Also I hear the ATF is welcoming of questions of any kind. You can find contact information on the ATF website.

Tannerite still walks a fine line as the CPSC could easily ban it just as they ban many fireworks that are classified as 1.4g. They already ban pyrotechnic companies from selling dark aluminum with most oxidizers as they classify that as an explosive kit. Most people also probably don't realize that once they mix Tannerite they can no longer travel on public roads as that is now a DOT violation. These laws are convoluted, and that doesn't take into account local and state laws. Also, pyrotechnicians and rocket enthusiasts have serious issues with the ATF classifying items that deflagrate as explosives.

quick question (and no worries if there isn't an answer...I can always just look it up): why are shotguns exempt from the over .50 cal rules when it can fire a slug that is .73 cal? just curious what the reasoning was.

What if i use handgrenades for recreational purposes? Like fishing for example. Then it should be legal, shouldn't it?

No because it's will kill too many fish and potentially pollute the water. It's called fishing not harvesting.

"there is some problems with these classifications and some weird naming" SO LETS REMOVE ALL REGULATION I SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEND 40 PIECES OF SHRAPNEL AT SOMETHING

A lot of the stuff I learned serving my country is simply too dangerous . Of course vietnam was dangerous. After all I bled out in country. Still we must study. Since I still have all my fingers and eyes I must have a certain sense of restraint. Knowing and doing simply are different things. Thank you for your entertainment value. Please be careful. Dr. K

What if you made home made blasting powder and used over the counter cordite as a double base.

50lbs of black powder sitting next to my stove? lol what?

So according to atf I can go to my local hardware store pick up some rose bush duster and tree stump remover granules mix it with some charcoal put it in a card board tube and blow up my stove and that would be ok??

I'm just a guy who is curious to see things go boom and I'm not sure if it is different feeling if you pull the trigger on said explosion but it probably does see as how I play video games and cant really get in to one with out some sort of feedback so I guess yeah but I just want to see one in person safely of course

I'm cheap. Get the "big blast caps" and some threaded tire valve stems. Fill two liter bottle with 120 psi of compressed air, shoot with the cheapest and most silent bb gun. Then remind your neighbors how much their dogs bark when they complain about the noise. All bark, no bite. Use the hole in the cap for a tether so you don't lose your caps and valve stems for repeated use.

So black powder used in a .50 caliber muzzle loading rifle is not for sporting purposes, but a .45 caliber muzzle loader is ok?

Muzzle loaders aren’t considered firearms

I'm pretty likely to die or possibly go to jail at some point anyway. Thanks for the words of caution though ;)

@@itslife9855 It's the landmines you really want to be careful of, not the "pupers".

Tannerite sounds like a lot of fun. I've always wanted to play around with exploding targets but want to be able to manufacture it at home safely (none of that TATP garbage).

Same reason i couldn't convert my saiga 12 to have a pistol grip without first removing a few of the oem parts with ones made in the usa. "Sporting "

I thought ATF had recently classed 40mm chalk rounds as DD? They said due to the weight of projectile with the zinc pusher I believe

Lloyd!!! Did you ask for the Dumb and Dumber hair cut, or was that an accident. :) Just playing... Love the channel!

ok, so you talk about being able to make explosives for personal use, but using black powder or smokeless powder is still a no no without a license. So if I Form 1 a pipe bomb to take out a beaver damn on my property, what kind of explosive can I use in it? All theoretical of course.

1. That's a question for a real lawyer to answer. Though since you can make your own explosives, why not just make your own blackpowder for your theoretical pipebomb? 2. A pipebomb would be a terrible thing to try to takeout a beaver dam with. 1/2 the time it will turn into a rocket instead of detonating.

Better check your local laws regarding the taking of beaver and or the destruction of a dam.
