  1. I was reading a post earlier about gnarly firework accidents, evidently the mortars are dangerous as hell, blowing off hands, and in one case, decapitation. Uncle Stumpy sez get the hell outta the way once you light that fuse.

  4. Most mortars have a fuse as long as the tube you drop it into. 16 to 20 inches.
    We can buy 3 inch shells with a stack of 3 on each shot. 250 feet in the air with a bloom of 50 feet. Very nice.
    This moron let it burn for 5 seconds on his head,or his good buddies wanted to kill him.
