JohnMitchell 16 #3 June 25, 2015 akarunway 357 sig. I have that, in Sig P229. Not too many people do. As far as fireworks, going to the DZ party and letting the kids light all the fuzes. I'll stand back and hold their beers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keithbar 1 #5 July 9, 2015 I was able to find the cannon fuse but I couldn't find the plastic connectors anywhere everybody was out of stock. I substituted small pieces of twist tie. and judicious use of masking tape. I had a 10 rack of Excaliburs mortar tubes I reloaded 3 times anda 4 rack of the smaller Goliath tubes that I reloaded 4 times. plus dozens of roman candles with only two Roman candles failure to light. and 1 mortar. That the fuse bypassed I was pretty proud of my pyrotechnics skills. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Speaking from personal experience you can be stupid as long as you're lucky. You don't run into trouble until you combine dumb and not lucky. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keithbar 1 #9 July 10, 2015 I have a healthy respect for those mortar tubes. I have seen what happens when you load a shell upside down. It's scary as hell. Every skydiver knows it's usually a chain of mistakes that gets you. I bet these guys had got away with holding a mortar tube before. But loaded it incorrectly And that's what got them. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .
