Anyone ever make Tannerite?
You know... that explosive only when struck by bullet (or something moving 1500fps) loud as heck bang?
I saw some vids on it and then saw the price How can they justify $80 if it only about $10 for 1 pound of each mixture? As far as I have figured out the mix is a 95/5 of Ammonium Perchlorate and Aluminum Flake. Both are legal to own (as far as I know), unless stored mixed, and purchase. Has anyone made their own?? I MIGHT try it... dunno.

The recipe I found was Ammonium Nitrate not perchlorate, but perhaps they are interchangable. The ratio was the same, and it was said that you don't mix the two until ready to use. I accept no liability for injuries (or deaths) resulting from using this recipe. I have never used it, and I won't until some guinea pig confirms it same (preferably a confirmation visually, but from a safe distance.)
