Want to buy 50 lbs of gun powder? I understand it's almost as good as a bag of fertilizer. Sen. Lautenberg to Reintroduce Explosive Materials Background Check Act Posted on April 18, 2013 by Robert Farago Current law allows an individual to purchase as much as 50 pounds of explosive “black powder” without a background check, and also permits an individual to purchase unlimited amounts of dangerous “smokeless powder” and “black powder substitute” without a background check. Sen. Lautenberg’s proposal would change that and require a background check for any purchase of these explosive powders. These powders can be used as the explosive material in assembling pipe bombs, used in the Columbine school shooting, and pressure cooker bombs, which may have been used in the recent Boston attack. thetruthaboutguns.com
