This site has some pretty cool stuff.

Does anyone know it tracer rounds, the shot gun rounds etc are legal in PA?

I am not talking about if your range will let you shoot them, I am just asking basically if I purchase form this place are the guys in the black GMCs coming for me...

I'm not sure...but these look freakin sweet!!!!!!

Holy Shiiite!

Is that stuff even for real? Looks cartoonish based on the packaging and some of the names - Terminator, Flame-Thrower, etc....

The 12 ga. flechette rds. look particularly nasty...

Have no idea bout legality, but that stuff looks scary

$1.50 a round for their SS109 really makes me want to buy from them.

It is gimmick ammo, made to sell to suckers at a gun show.

Now can you shoot it in PA? unless the laws of physics change dramatically when UPS crosses the state line, I suspect you can.

Look through the site.

Some of it looks pretty damn cool.

I just don't know if I can rightfully order it.

I am not a lawyer, that said, as far as I know, unless something has changed in the past 6 months or so, that stuff is perfectly legal in PA, clicking on the pictures in their ads shows restricted states/cities.

Now, I could care less how you spend your money, but if you dig up some old issues of Shotgun news, say 5+ years old, you will find ads for that same "ammo", in the same packaging and all, but under a different company name. I cannot remember the company, but they went through many name changes over the past 15-20 years, different names, same packaging, same address.

When I used to hit the shows, buying and selling, I ended up with some of that stuff in a trade deal, I was not impressed in the slightest.

The "Dragons Breath" was filled with what appeared to be Magnesium powder and was not what I considered impressive like the ad states, more like a kids sparkler being fired out of a 12 ga.
The Fletchette rounds I soon realized why they were not widely used in Vietnam), they sucked. Other than the sparks coming from the end of my barrel, the things hit the plywood at goofy angles.

Buyer Beware is my advice.

WHAT?! You're trying to tell me that they are not the supreme jungle warfare anti-sniper threat described in the link?! (I actually did get a hearty laugh at that part, anyhow - Seriously, who gets within shotgun range to take out a sniper?)

Or perhaps I simply don't know anything about military tactics (which I don't, but I like to think I have some modicum of common sense).

But to the OP - I too thought it was interesting, and I am glad we heard from someone who has experience w/ these novelties (thanks, 39flathead)....

there are no ammo restrictions in Pa as long as they're not used in the commission of a crime.
