Where do I get gunpowder?

I have a great idea for a helicopter firecracker, but where the hell do you buy gunpowder?

A gun store? or just buy a lot of fireworks and take the powder out of them

Next time use a search engine 😖

I did use a search engine, but nothing came up

Do what Slip said and take the powder out of a bunch of firecrackers... Or go to a gun store.

any1 know any basic crap to create powder?
only way i can get to firecrackers is through 2 states

carbon plus KMnO4

😑 i don't know it is working, i've read it in some book 😬

Hmmm. It's theoretically not that hard to create gunpowder, however depending on the purpose it is quiet possible that the stuff from a fire arms store (primarily for recharging spent cartridges) might not be the best for fire works (based upon different consistencies of basic ingredients). Ah, not that I have tried before 😗

This site though gives some basics

Note - this site is primarily for general knowledge.

if you want to make homemade gun powder use the Anarchists Cook Book

Get gunpowder from a gunpowder shop

im sure the FBI aren't crawling all over this forum now...thanks for that 😂

finely divided carbon (soot) plus salt peter (potassium manganate) plu sulphur powder. carbon is the fuel, salt peter provides the oxygen and sulphur gives the spark. mix em REAL good, but NOT in a metallic container with a metal spoon or sumthin. gunpowder! muck aorund with the ratio of quantities to get a faster or slower burn...add iron and aluminium filings to make it extra hot...

This is more like OTF material.

Moving....

my great great great grandfather had a stash of barrells hidden in a mine when he used to dig for gold in the Gold Rushed Klondike.......

EDIT: nvm i got it
