I believe this is what they used in Boston last week on the crowds.

Per ATF(E) (google yerself for the ruling) If you use ANY type of projectile out of a 37mm or similar type of flare launcher, it just became a Destructive Device.
You CAN have these, but you have to go Title 2 methinks, cuz you would be constructing a new device. Right fellas? Basically don't do it, unless you get a piece of paper from the Feds saying YOU CAN

I know shooting bird bombs and flares is okay but what about paintballs?

Okay so all 37mm ammo would have to be registered with the BATFE?

From what I here there perfectly legal, but you can only use smoke, flares and things like that.... The instant you use a baton, beanbag, stingball, teargas, or anything else, or launch a flare or smoke at someone it becomes a destructive device, technicly your not even allowed to own a launcher and a batton or other such round, but you can own them seperately....

Shooting something like plastic/rubber/paintball rounds would make a 37mm a destructive device because these rounds are intended for shooting at people. Checkout 37mm.com for more info.

I have a 37mm "FLARE" launcher. And all I can shoot out of it are flares, OC, CN and CS gas, and smoke..Birdbombs were outlawed by the ATF (Yes, part of Homeland Security garbage) last May...
Anything considered Anti-Personnel, other than OC, CS or CN gas, is illegal and a big no-no.. The flare launchers are considered smooth bores and are not regulated by the ATF unless you desire to make it a Destructive Device...Then you have to do all the necessary paperwork with the .gov www.37mm.com |

Thanks.
So a crowd control device in 37mm is a DD. CRC |

The ammo (except flares, smoke, and old bird-busters) would be considered illegal, and if the 37mm launcher were anywhere near it then that would become a destructive device. |
