Is it illegal to make homemade black powder? | Yoo Answers
Nov 26, 2007· I got into some trouble with the law and the police started an investigation with the Postal Service. A package was stopped with a total of 18 pounds of 2 of the ingredients to make black powder (charcoal and potassium nitrate). Also included was a ball mill. A search warrant was performed in my room, and they found empty M60 paper tubes, fuses, and some other fireworks ingredients.
