We have always been a small business that strives to satisfy every customer. We micro-manage the business to ensure that folks receive their order on time and we spend a great deal of time with customer support. Our goal is to continue inventing safe and legal products for people from all walks of life..from military personnel to good US Citizens. We don’t believe in out-sourcing for the most part, but some chemicals and components must be imported so that we can be competitive in the market place.  We are also domestically manufacturing several lines of pyrotechnics, cannons and mortars for reenactment purposes.

If you have something you would like to trade, feel free to call us. We occasionally trade for other products, and always trade for good elk hunting!

We return all emails and phone calls promptly and ship via the most affordable means possible. We don’t agree with companies who operate under the cloak of religion, but we try to follow Proverbs 3 : 6  to the best of our ability.

Regarding Binary Exploding Targets:

Tannerite is a binary explosive used primarily as a target for firearms practice, and is unique in that it is exceptionally stable when subjected to less severe forces such as a hammer blow or being dropped. It is supplied as two powders which are combined to produce the explosive. Tannerite is a trademarked name, and binary exploding targets are a patented invention.

Tannerite company recommends using 1/2 pound charges (0.23 kg), which should detonate when shot by a high-powered rifle. Small caliber rim-fire or slow moving pistol ammunition  will not initiate a detonation.

Tannerite is used by shooting clubs to provide explosions for their participants in large-scale shooting events, tactical teams, fire authorities, as well as members of the general public who wish to have a shot indicator for extreme long range shooting.

Tannerite detonations occur at a very high velocity, producing a large explosion and cloud of water vapor. It may be useful for persons who are firing at long ranges; in this scenario, a long-range rifle shooter em-places targets, retreats to his firing position, and fires. The shooter does not wish to have to walk down range to see if he has a hit, the Tannerite will detonate and serve as an indicator.

Since the two components are not explosive until mixed, they can legally be purchased and used in the USA without any kind of license.  Storage of the mixed Tannerite for commercial purposes may fall under federal regulation  unless stored in approved magazines.
