Being the old man I am, well... not too old, I stay at home on New years. Too many crazies out there on amateur night. So, I thought I'd pop a couple of 1lb charges for fun. AK47, 7.62x.39 at 40 yards.
Happy New Year!.... playing with explosives.

Holy fuck man. I had no idea they were that powerful. That's cool as hell. I got a pack of 1/2 pounders here, but I've never used any yet. Oh man. If I had know about this shit when I was a kid. I was bad enough without it, lol.
I'm just gonna light some fireworks off tonight. Thankfully it's snowing now, so I'm not worried about starting any fires. I won't light shit off up here unless it's wet.

Yeah buddy!... 1 lb charge is big, a 2 lb charge is better. I had a 2 pounder turn a 5 gallon bucket inside out, and threw pieces for 100 yards.

Nice!
I’m partial to mortars. The bigger the better.
One every hour from 9pm until midnight.
My neighbors love me.

@PadawanWarrior .... look at the shock wave on the leafs in the foreground... I was kinda worried I was going to blow a window out on the house.. I've never set one off that close. I usually hit them out on the shooting range.

Same here man. Didn't want to use the "P" word though. The counselors found one of my little ones in my room in rehab. They had a big meeting with everyone there and brought it out and showed everyone.
They did say "It's a work of art, but it's not OK, and that they should call the FBI", lol. But they didn't.
It was frowned upon big time then, but it's way different now.
Once when I was like 16 camping I had rangers and a bunch of the parks and rec people surrounding me from all angles after I lit a smaller one in a canyon and the sound was reflecting off the rock walls so it was even louder than normal.
I told them it was just a leftover firecracker from the 4th. My dad covered for me, but they took my lighter, lol.
Sorry everyone for rambling, but explosive talk will do it to me everytime.

Oddly enough... as soon as I popped off these couple of rounds, I heard the neighbors retort. There's about 30 homes in my square mile, and on any given nice day, you can hear gunfire from every direction. Everybody around here loves Tanerite. We're just respectful, and don't blow one up after midnight.
