[TowerTalk] [Bulk] Re: Grounding/Bonding Lessons Learned

[Grant Saviers]

A word of caution - take the can label literally, since BP sold in the 
USA is legal to possess ONLY for use in BP firearms.  Any other use 
requires an ATF Explosives User Permit, and you don't want to go there, 
with required regular inspections of your record keeping and a federally 
approved storage magazine.  I believe Pyrodex (no sulfur to corrode the 
firearm) is subject to the same regulations.

see the ATF open letter
