Default Just what we needed.....

Some idiot tried to blow up a parade in Sherwood Park with Tannerite. I’d say it will be off the shelves in Canada within the next month

Never purchased the stuff myself, so don't know how easy it is to purchase.
If it isn't already I can see at the least it becoming like ammo...no PAL, no purchase.
Another case of one guy likely ruining it for the vast majority.

They will ban it, and then tells us how they are protecting us from terrorists, meanwhile, the ISIS terrorists will continue to return to Canada.

No loss, idiot toy to begin with. Anybody who has any ideas of what this stuff is capable of, wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.

Tannerite is a great reactionary target, instant feedback

Lots of fun when shooting with the kids. Like all things, it can be used for wrongdoing.


Emotional knee jerk reactions by the liberals and fudds.

You do need PAL to purchase tannerite. It is sold pretty much anywhere ammo is sold. It can be purchased even online and shipped to your house.
As I already mentioned in other thread, tannerite is super safe to handle and will not go boom if thrown into the fire even. It is a reactionary target, it only goes boom when hit by a high velocity bullet.

I don't think the "vast majority" ever used this stuff ,or ever would.

article says it exploded and killed the suspect while he was in the parkade in his car, also another explosion several hours later. apparently it doesnt need just a high velocity bullet to make it explode...

It can go off besides a bullet,i also mention this last night to you.How it can go off is not important on this site or any other as far as that goes.

It was tested after the boston marathon bombings in 2 labs in the usa and both times ka boom,very easy to set off if you know anything about explosives .

I worked for both CIL and Orica explosives off and on for decades.You name I used it for work purposes only blasting ditch for pipeline,hydro,road job,or mining pits.So tannerite is super safe in the right hands,but in the wrong hands it's just another explosive as far as I can see.Plus I worked with the tech's from both companies on there sites on lotsa new products which some never went to market.

If you have enough imagination you can change anything that goes boom,if they could split the atom a long time ago,i am sure they could set off simple tannerite.

So if you need a bang in your life,there's many ways to make a bang without this stuff.I have enough stuff just out of Canadian tire to put my house in my neighbors yard if I was into going to jail for a very long time,so no booms from this guy.

Somebody must have learnt something from the Oklahoma boomings,yet we forget so quickly on how easy that stuff was made with.

JD, I am not questioning the fact that the super safe tannerite can be converted into a portable nuke,lol. I’m just saying that tannerite is very safe the way it is intended to be used. Just like fertilizer, gasoline or propane.
Idiots out there converting the pressure cookers into bombs. So what now- outlaw the pressure cookers?
I would rather outlaw the idiots!

Well of coarse I would like to see the idiots gone same as you,they just like to hide the smallest things with a bigger bang.If it was used once ,chances are it will be used again in a terrorist act that's all I am trying to say,no problem with the stuff not being safe in the right hands like you said,cheers.

I’ve always kind of enjoyed the thump when shooting guns and legalizing tannerite just put the icing on the cake for me. I think this was an isolated incident where only the snow flake got roasted

BLM - yes. Pride -no. I don’t care what people are doing in their bedrooms as long as they don’t force me to do the same. Plus I like the entertainment factor of a pride parades and drag shows.
