        And I hear of people who want/do store powder/primers and lots of ammo in their safe.
        That makes a great bomb
        A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

          Regular old 10mm will do that.

            If that were to happen at an oil refinery in CA, gas prices at the pump would jump $0.25

              Please...Torrance jumped prices by 75 cents easy.
              25c would be modest.

                One of those guys arguing with me about the innocuous nature of throwing primers in the barbeque pit has to be involved. Probably the week-end head Safety Officer.

                    This was caused by a primer?





                    It's hard to believe that a primer could do all that by itself.

                      Smokeless powder doesn't blow like that, perhaps the container with the black powder went up.

                          A spark of some kind initiated that fire. And how many years of college did I need to figure that out?
