Can pop flares be purchased online anywhere?
I'm looking for the kind that fit in pouches like this: http://www.blackhawk.com/product/STRIKE-Pop-Flare-Pouch,1284,1393.htm |

I've seen "stolen" US Military flares around, $60-90 each. Uncle Sam doesn't release them as surplus to the public but some have gone to LE, etc, an wound up on the market. And surplus foreign stuff.
Some states may have laws against them, considered Class C fireworks. Colorado is a good example...if it leaves the ground or goes boom, its illegals. Get a 26.5mm flare pistol, buy some of the flares from Wideners, 10 white parachute flares for $39.50. |

Do a search for parachute flares... some are designed as signal devices, others for illumination (usually for maritime applications). As stated above, they may be illegal in certain areas. This is due to the high danger of starting a fire in these are launched in an area where it may land near wooded or grassy areas.
For example... Lower Right, "White Illuminating Rocket $69.95" Good luck, -Randy |
