To purchase any Class A or B fireworks, you must have a current
ATF Explosives License; either a Dealer's license, Mfg license,
or Federal Users permit. Due to the huge variety of diferent types
of fireworks, it is not possible to keep a running price list
on each item for sale. Prices change without notice and during
certain times of year, availability becomes a concern. Combine
that with the many diferent laws in every state which are at times
impossible for a lawyer to decipher, and you can understand why
we cant post prices. Large containers from Bejing, China arrive
with substituted items, shortages of certain types of fireworks
and quite often product is damaged in it's long voyage accross
the ocean. It passes through many hands before reaching the shelf,
and endures a variety of weather conditions.
If you are interested in certain fireworks,
our advice is to contact us long before you need them, if possible,
and send us a list of the type and quantity of product you want.
Many people feel that since they live in a state or city which
doesn't allow fireworks, that ALL pyrotechnic devices are illegal.
This is not always the case. There are alot of ways a person can
partisipate in pyrotechnic activities while being well within
the law. What you need to do, is decide what purchasing level
you are on.
Are you a wholesaler, distributer, retailer,
or simply a hobbiest? Are you a professional pyrotechnician who
works for a company, or a "free-lance" technician? There
is a distinct diference between "Public Display" and
"Private Use". When dealing with Public Display fireworks,
there are more things to consider. Usually the Fire Marshall of
your state has some degree of say as to how the show is to be
conducted. There are guidelines which may have to be followed
for the safety of the public, and at time there are licensing
requirements for conducting public displays or becoming a certified
pyrotechnician. Your local fire authorities having juristicion
over your area are able to sign a "local" fireworks
permit. You may also apply for a "public limited" permit,
where only Class C items are used.
If you are a hobbiest, you may build fireworks
of any size for research and development purposes, however, the
fireworks/explosives must be used the same day as they are built,
unless you have ATF approved storage facilities/magazines. Usualy
when you store any explosive, you are either required to have
a State license or a Federal License. There are a few exceptions.
One being that law enforcement and fire authorities are exempt.
Another exception is when working underground. MSHA (Mining Safety
Hazard Assossiation) then has authority over your operations and
you must follow their Federal laws regulating underground storage/use.
A copy of MSHA laws may be found on the Internet. For further
