Hello,
I recently noticed that a 37mm flare launcher is technically not a DD or even a firearm if you fire certain types of projectiles. But I'm looking for reliable legal information on what i could fire out of the launcher if I were to get one. Obviously flares and smoke and such are technically legal. But are there any other projectiles that I could fire instead of those two? What about a smoke round that I loaded with dirt or flour or something instead of smoke chemical to save money [essentially make a smoke round that just doesn't do anything]. What are the chances that that would be legal? Is there a limit to the velocity at which I could launch a flare?
Should I just write to the BATFE for reliable information in written form?
Thanks!
