Well that's pretty ruff,After 9/11 changes were made to the availability of some things like black powder.But the Right to keep and bear arms in the constitution prevent many of these groups having their way.At the present time some groups in our government are trying to manufacture amunition that becomes unuseable after two years,they can't take our guns but nothing says they cannot restrict the stocking of amunition.As for Tanking Tennessee is pro gun state and if your a resonable person ie no criminal record you can purchase just about anything gun related.On another note how about some pictures of your tanks,I am really unsure of which types of drives and controls I will need or require for my new  TIGER 1/6.Do you have any advice on motors,speed controls?Please advise SAX

How about pyrotechnics instead of LPG and blank gun?

Sax, sorry I haven't got back to you, depends on what you want to spend personally I would get in touch with Mark 1 tanks in England you will find him very helpful, the drive system he uses in the 1/6 tanks is excellent as foe speed controller again this depends on what you want, I use a 12v system with Electronize speed controllers and a Benadini sound system these are the best on the market you will not require 24v with the weight of your tank.
I'm just about to move house again but in the coming month I will be carrying on with my Tiger build and opening a thread on hear about the build, in the meantime have a look at this link
