I had my own, but the mortars IDK wtf happened but the tubes musta been no good (3rd time using them) and the last rounds we set off flew up about 10ft in the air and exploded everywhere and set my grass on fire in a few spots.

what really sucks is when they go up but then come right on back down and exloded 5ft off the ground. yikes sat night was interesting. ha i ended up nearly punching my wife in the head to grab her away from the explosion:eek2:

yea, im not sure what happened but it scared the crap out of me cause it exploded basically 20ft from where I was standing and went EVERYWHERE.

The tubes were shot I think cause the mortars wouldnt fit all the way down..

Ya Oregon has some of the most strict Fireworks laws. Growing up in Corvallis, we used to have to make our own to have any fun. But Washington on the other hand, you can buy and light off pretty much anything. It was like a freaking war zone when I stepped outside Sunday night. Pretty crazy.

Well around here it normally sounds like world war III but not this year. I guess the bad economy has everyone saving there money.

we kind of modded some of ours this year we put the mortars on bottle rockets with the bigger rocket engines and put the mortar fuses thru them, they went way the hell up but its not that great of an explosion
