funny. There was no supply chain issues last summer when fireworks were being launched at homes, at people, at cars, and into the night to scare puppies and kittens...

Poor baby.

We had one who climbed in the bathtub during every thunderstorm and fireworks.

Never heard of an M-500. What’s that, a hand grenade?

I remember as a kid shooting Cherry Bombs out of a Wrist Rocket slingshot. Man them suckers went far.

Never crossed my mind though what would have happened if it had been a ‘’short’’ fuse.

The M-500s were American made, with the power of (about) a quarter stick of dynamite.
Water proof and easy to light from a central fuse. Bright red, about 6 inches long and one inch thick...
