Quoted: I wish I could get into the team forum...

Doing a poster for ARFCOM, and posted some iniital pics... Here's a taste....

Quoted: Once I got around to looking at their fingers, I noticed they both had poor trigger discipline.   Only mentioning it because I know some folks are big on that 'round here. Better be careful they don't have a premature discharge.   Dangerous Wemenz.  I like it.

Yeah- bad trigger fingers.... that's why they're totin airsoft.
Calendars maybe for 2006.

Quoted: Will there be an ar15.com poster w/o scantily clad babes?   I can't be putting soft core pron on my walls.

Absolutely... and requests or ideas will be considered... email me directly or post in own thread instead of in this one.... who hijacked this?  

Tannerite details will be posted tomorrow... some new products as well as discount offered.

A free calendar with every two cases of Tannerite?

Guys- sorry to keep you waiting... I'm still waiting myself for some details, but the bottom line is that Daniel is going to offer the members of AR15.com a 10% discount on the already reduced sales price. For those that have not seen the new pricing:

Case Price retail: $119--SALE: $89! Order two cases for only $160!
Also available is six-pak sample kit.

They have sensitized it under the supervision of the CPSC to detonate with hollow points and ballistic tips as well... any rifle round, including blunts. As soon as I receive the new AR15 targets, I will post more info.

There is a new forum for Tannerite so go there for more details. That's all for now! I'll let you know as soon as I know more...

If there's anyone who has never tried Tannerite Exploding Targets, I promise you there is no better product out there. It will add a new dimension to your shooting events, but please be safe!

Regarding: Why is Tannerite legal.

I'll try to answer as many questions as I can, as I'm not on here as much as I should be.  Originally, I think that Tannerite was legal only because I "said it was" for so many years that it became an urban legend and eventually became excepted as "legal".   Not that there were any laws "against it" but that no one could find any laws supporting such a weird/new concept. In my search, I found page 58 in the CFR and also ended up in court over Tannerite.... numerous times, where I won on every count.  It's not quite "case law" in the true sense, but  it's good enough to keep the wolves from the door.  Go to www.tannerite.com and you will see  a link from the Federal code of regulations which actually supports the concept of Tannerite.  If you are law enforcement, you can now go to the "Law Enforcement Only Bulletin" and find a two page write up on Tannerite, where it states in no uncertain terms that it IS in fact legal.
Regarding shooting dynamite: We have done this for many, many years.  It has to be a NG based (Nitro Based) dynamite in order to be bullet sensitive, and ditching powder of 80% works best, although we shot some 60% the other day with fine results.  It is by far the cheapest way to go, but requires federal licenses and storage, which the average redneck doesn't have. The head aches that come from handling it were quite common, but then in the mid-eighties they stopped using true NG in the dynamite and went to Emulsions and other stick dynamite. The Nitro dynamite that was advertised at that time was in fact only a Nitro-derivative (Esters) and took quite a bit to set it off.   In the late 90's true Nitro-based stick powder became available again, due only to the low cost of it.  People started getting head aches again, which was due to the fact that it is transdermal/can be absorbed through the skin, if you come in contact with actual leakage.  We had to be extra careful in the gold and zinc mines in the Bohemia district as our ventilation system had a lot to be desired.  All of you guys can feel free to email me directly if you have any safety questions on either Tannerite or any other commercial explosive. I've been working in the industry since I was very young.  My grandfather was crippled, and he used me as his legs at an early age.  He also used me as a scapegoat when things didn't go just right ;-)
 Cordially,
Daniel@Tannerite

Oh,  don't forget folks....
Any member of AR15.com gets a 10% discount plus extras when they order on-line. Just shoot me an email and I'll take care of ya ;-)  This is the loudest stuff we have made, and it flows like water, with no caking,.. yet still has the same level of safety and has been approved by the CPSC (a long procedure).
 Take care,
Daniel 'boom' lol
PS,  the other invention that Ed was speaking of is top secret at the moment, and will be a short while until it's introduction.  The company who is producing it is comprised of four entities who are well known and it is truly one of the brightest inventions I have witnessed in a long time.  Wish I could toss you all a bigger bone, but my hands are tied and I'm sworn to secrecy about the entire concept until such time that the powers that be give the 'ok' to present it publicly. Suffice to say that it will be well worth the wait ;-)

tag....
i need more tannerite

... it flows like water, with no caking,.. yet still has the same level of safety


… I hope I'm not speaking out of turn here Dan, but for your older compound, I use a neat trick I thought up one day shooting the stuff. I use Cab-o-Sil® (Cabosil® is an extremely fine particle size silica - silicon-dioxide / SiO2 aerogel. It is pure white and free-flowing. It contains about 94% dead air space, with a density of only 2.3 lb/cu ft.!) to prevent clogging and increases detonation yield.

   Daniel wrote: Hi wolf man, not out of line at all.  Anything improvements or perceived improvements it should be shared with the group. We do utilize Cabosile in less amounts, trying to maintain the detonation velocity.  Currently, the blend we are manufacturing wont need additional C-o'-S even if exposed to extreme heat or direct sunlight. It's nice to have an explosives research lab on our property, as well as having access to Helix Labs and Dr Sankoich down the road.   To answer some of the questions asked by others in previous posts... which I just read..
 In the movie "Heat",  at the beggining, when the man picked up a case of 1.1D high X, and purchased it with a DL, it was legal in that state (AZ) at that time.  What it didn't show in detail, was that he filled out a 5400.4 form (the Federal Equivalent to a 4473 yellow form, except for explosives).   In my opinion,  this is all that should be required for the purchase and same-day use of hi-X.   If it is stored over night, it must be kept in an approved storage bunker (magazine).  In 2002, May 24th,  the feds passed a law stating that the 5400.4 was no longer acceptable, and that any purchaser in the US must have a federal license in order to purchase any explosive,, even for in-state use (I don't believe that they have the authority for this).  They do offer a federal permit that allows for six purchases per year, and is fairly inexpensive. It is called the "User-Limited Permit" and can be had by calling the Dallas licensing headquarters.  If anyone here has some explosives stashed away... I strongly suggest that they either be disposed of, or that you obtain a fed license. I won't rat you out if you call me up and ask how to go about filling out the form, or if you ask about disposal of existing powder.  ..... On that topic, it needs to be said that burning dynamite has been a common practice for many years. I have done it since I was 8 years old with my grandfather.  It's a quite and inexpensive way of getting rid of old powder.  But there can be hazards associated with it.    HER IS THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM THATN IS NEVER MENTIONED AND THAT NO ONE SEEMS TO BE AWARE OF:   A lot of folks used/use 'fuse caps'.  These fuse caps have a 1/4" safety fuse inserted in them and the cap is then crimped and placed in the stick powder. If the cap is not crimped well, and a person decides not to use the stick, they will remove the fuse....and if they aren't paying attention, the fuse will pull out of the cap, leaving the cap in the stick of powder.  The stick is placed back in the case and stored.  If the powder is not used, and it becomes out dated,  and you try to burn it.... guess what? The minute the flame hits the cap, whoever is with in danger range of the stuff is going to be in for a surprise.   I strongly believe that this is the sole cause of dynamite occasionally detonating when it is burned.  It's the stuff that you don't expect that will get you....the element of surprise works both ways.
 Be careful guys!
Daniel

It may be a while before the brainiacs go public with their invention. I shouldn't have said anything at all about it and should squelch the topic from further discussion, out of courtesy to the parties involved.  The invention, as I understand it to be, is not addressed in any state law, because the concept has never been entertained. Therefore, as we read it, it would be legal in the entire USA....until some liberal psychopath commie bastard killjoy decides to outlaw it.  Out of respect for the inventor's intellectual property rights, I'm going to say that the embodiment of the idea involves dispersing NFA tax dollars to planned parenthood clinics across the Country, and that should keep the nose of any liberal gun-grabbers sniffing in a different direction.
 Regarding moving to a more gun-friendly state..   there are a few ways of looking at it.  I don't think anyone is 'extreme' for moving to another state in order to exercise a right that is, in all reality, a birthright to all Americans.  Living in Oregon, right above California, and below Seatle,  things are getting a little stuffy around here..... and I've thought about moving somewhere with a little more breathing room as well.  I need at least 20 miles of nothing around me. Nothing but mountains, so I can continue teaching my explosives classes in peace. It can be cheaper to get active and help form pro-gun groups that can actually change the anti gun laws in a state. Some states only have bad gun laws on the books because no one has taken the initiative to eliminate the existing ones.  It's really not that hard, unless there is organized crime behind some of the existing bad laws. We hired a lobbyist this year and he took our bill to the state Capital and obtained an "LC" number for it. He then went to work finding "bill backers" and is now playing the "popularity contest" that we call politics.  It can be done with out a lobbyist, but I feel they are a necessary evil and usually worth their fees.  Get active and organized and fight them politically........ so we wont have to kill them at a later date.

Oh, what I was speaking of is the OPA  (one of the groups I formed) which is a group primarily for explosives/pyrotechnic users in the state.  After realizing how simple the political process is, I was thinking of forming another Oregon firearms organization as well, to keep the reds in check.
 Sorry for any confusion.
