I am somewhat new to pyro and have been browsing some yankee firework sites and recently have come across cat3 reloadable mortars on sale!
why do we not have these here in the uk? were they banned the same time as airbombs and such like, or have we never had them here? i dont remember ever seeing them! but like i said i am (new to pyro)
If they are gone for good thats a shame they look like fun!!!

Was very surprised when i went into my local supermarkets (morrisons/asda) to find that they dont sell portfires or the not so good firework safety lighters, you know the ones you tend to get in smaller cheap selection boxes, in fact the girl on the counter just looked puzzled when i asked! the problem is with garden fireworks i dont think its too bad using a lighter but i would`nt fancy it with larger cat3 cakes etc. baring in mind that they are both selling larger cat3 fireworks i would of thought that safety is paramount but it appears that is not the case (surprised and shocked) but i suppose there is no law enforcing the safe use of fireworks only silly ones like banning bangers and airbombs, and larger rockets next year as i understand it (baaa ! no i wont say it !!!
