Thought you Illinois FReepers would be interested in the reference to Stephanie Sailor.

As the Armalite motto for their AR-50 goes:

"Pardon the noise -- it's the sound of FREEDOM!"

Doh ! I knew that... I'll bet with your EOD experience you'd feel right at home...I wonder if Joe would pass out his "target" recipe.

Cool.

If I may be permitted, I'd like to contribute this to your "Things that go boom" thread.

No. Sure sounds like it'd be fun to go there, though.

If anyone here is interested in some reactive targets - that can be shipped ANYWHERE to ANYONE without any HAZMAT charges, FReepmail me. They can only be detonated with a high power rifle (5.56 and above). They are almost as loud as a frag grenade, and one target is the equivalent of a 1/2 lb. charge of TNT. I know that this may be considered a sales pitch by the moderator - but it isn't - I don't profit one cent from them. I just thought that folks in here would like to try some - but be warned - once you shoot one you'll be hooked. (I go through 20-30 of them a week!) With luck and some time for planning, I'm hoping to organize a FReep shoot here at my place this summer. BYOW.

Joe's opinion makes sense to me...did you read some of those goofy requests ?

"... don't wanna make an atom bomb,just a smaller, which can destroys about 50-100 m3 . Please,tell me,how to make it! Thank you!"

Right, that was from some guy named Ali, lol.

I liked the fact that Joe began CC-ing his responses to the ATF! Give the b***ards something to do that's actually worthwhile.
