Say Goodbye To Tannerite

[mrjarrell]

So much for Boomershot. The FBI is getting their toes wet and tannerite is the water. They released a paper and basically called everyone out that shoots tannerite, saying it could be used by domestic terrorists to make IED's. Guess we can look for a run on tannerite, now. You can download a copy of the report here. Get it while you can, no telling when they might try to scrub it.

FBI expresses confidence extremists can obtain Tannerite to make IEDs - National gun rights | Examiner.com

this is the same ole crap....... Extremists will make an ied out of fertilizer if there so determined. More feel goof legislation im sure... Tahnks for the post. I love shooting tannerite.

I guess that giant display I saw at Gander will be like the shelves that held .22 and .223

So, let me get it straight, terrorists are gonna go to gun stores to buy tannerite instead of going to CVS to buy the same base component for less?

Really? Cause the terrorists don't have google and cannot figure out basic chemistry on their own?

Good find.

LOL @ the FBI Satisfaction Survey toward the end.

What's next? Diet Coke and Mentos? Fireworks?

Instant cold packs that you can buy without restriction from CVS, Walmart, and everywhere else, are solid Amonium-Nitrate. I won't share anymore details, but this is a flat out joke. Your average HS chemistry student could figure out what to do with this.

They are silly to think that legislation like this would deter a determined individual.

Almost every explosive compound contains nitrates or phosphates. Airport security scanners primarily trigger on these chemical signatures, which is why common hand lotions and hair care products will set them off and produce false positives that TSA is well aware of and pays little attention to.

I'll sell you my jug of tannerite. One pound, only $300. Get it before its banned!

Ridiculousness.

What is so hard about purchasing aluminum powder and some Ammonium Nitrate? I mean really... do the dooshbags at the FBI really think that attempting to stop the sale of tannerite will do anything at all? I really wonder how some of these idiots really made it thru grade school...

Honestly, I am suprised they didn't watch the YouTube videos on people acting like idiots with it and did this sooner. Not saying I wanted it to happen, but realistically, they are really late to the game.

Sparkler bombs seem to have more yield than Tannerite, but they haven't really cracked down on those yet... lol

We took 100,000 firecrackers and strung them all together and had a hell of a fun time...

LOL, exactly. Nothing gets the county called on you quicker than some legal fireworks, duct tape and time, lots of time...

Oh Great. Now you done it. Thanks for giving them the idea FBI.

 

[hookedonjeep]

Ummm.... My name is Achmed - um, that is, Steve; and I would like to purchase some sparklers for an IED, um, I mean for a party....

For Christ sake...

IF I wanted to blow some stuff up... I wouldn't mess with low yield stuff like tannerite. There are WAY better recipes to be had....

 

[Double T]

They've been onto tannerite for a long time.

Between Google and INGO, all the secrets of the world are at our finger tips.
