If they are illegal in new york they are illegal in ny.

A ny resident can legally go to pa and buy fireworks and light them in pa. If you buy fireworks in pa and then bring them in to ny you will possess illegal fireworks.

Go to Sams Club and look at what you can get there.  Maybe no firecrackers or roman candles.  Those come from Ohio

Not exactly accurate, but yes we can't have any of the good stuff like mortars and aerial cakes. However, if you're not a resident of PA you can legally buy any type of fireworks at PA shops. They carry all the stuff illegal in PA, they just can't sell it to PA residents.

If your question is can a resident of a state that bans goes to another state that has legal fireworks and buys them, is it a crime, then no it isn't.

Perfectly leag-well as long as he doesn't transport them into a state that outlaws them.

That would be like you going to another state and drinking beer with a higher alcohol than your home state allows.

Unless you go to the county offices and buy a fireworks permit.  Then you can buy lots and lots of mortars and put on a helluva show for family, friends and neighbors.

We spent close to $500 one year and fired mortar fireworks for over an hour.
