I. IMPROVISED INCENDIARIES 1) Chorate-Sugar mix This mixture can be either an incendiary or an explosive.Sugar is the common granulated household type.Either potassium chorate (KClO3) or sodium chlorate (NaClO3) can be used; but potassuim is potassium is preferred.Proportions can be by equal parts or by volume, or 3 parts chlorate to 2 parts sugar preffered. Mix in or on a non-sparking surface.Unconfined, the mixture is an incendiary. onfined in a tightly capped length of pipe, it will explode when a spark is intro.Such a pipe will produce lovely casualties, but is not very good for brea ching of cutting up. Concentrated sulfuric acid will ignite this very fast burn ng incendiary mixture. Placing the acid in a gelatin capsule, balloon, or other suitable container will provide a delay,(legth of which depends on how long it takes for the acid to eat through the container). 2) Potassium Permangate And Sugar Another fast burning, first fire mix is obtained by mixing potassium permangate ,9 parts, to one part sugar.It is somewhat hotter than the chlorate sugar mix and can be ignited by the addition of a few drops of glycerine. 3) Improvised Napalm In talking about this, I have found that there are many ways to this wonderful substance. My favorite is by mixing gasoline and styrofoam. Usually in a metal can. Keep adding the styrofoam until the mix is very stinky, an then add a little bit of kerosine. Another method is by taking a double boiler, filling the bottom portion with approx 3/4 full of water. Put either gasoline or kerosine into the top. Add pure SOAP chips to the mix. Heat the fuel until it boils and then simmers. Stir constantly until the desired consistancy is reached: remember that it will thicken further on cooling. Last we come the 'Soldier' technique, anyone who saw this movie will recognize this one. Carefully heat the end of a 100 watt lightbulb. again-carfully remove the metal end and internal parts. Fill the glass bulb with half gasoline. and then 1/4 more with dishwashing liquid. Finally take rubber cement and glue the two parts back together. Be sure that you put enough mixture into the build so that the metal wire is well submerged before use and during. 4) Molded Bricks That Burn Propartions are 3 parts aluminum powder, 4 parts water and 5 parts plaster of paris. Mix the aluminum and plaster thoroughly together, then add the water and stir vigorously. Pour the resulting mix into a mold, let harden, and then dry fo r 2 to 3 weeks. These blocks are hard to ignite, and take a long time to make, b ut when ignited on mild steal, they have a tendancy to melt it. 5) The Fire Bottle Fill a good Jack Daniel's bottle about one-fifth to one-fourth full with sulfur ic acid.Fill the remainder with gasoline, kerosine, or a good combination of the two and mix thoroughly. Add water to Potassium Chlorate and sugar mix, and soap k rags in the mix.Wrap the rags around the bottle, tie in place, and allow to dry. When thrown at a T-62 or other target, the bottle will break, the acid will ignite the chlorate-sugar mix on the rags, which will ignite the fuel. Great for parties, impress your friends! 6) Molotov Cocktails It's amazing to me how many people DON'T know the proper way of making the easiest thing in the book. These toys do not 'explode' per say, they just spread around the fuel and, if your lucky the oil/gas mix combusts enough to give you a little "boom". A two to one ratio of gas to oil works nicely. Napalm can also be used, or jelly gas is fine. 7) Thermite Use any size can with sticks tied or taped to sides and cut a small hole in the bottom. Cover bottom with paper. Place round stick wrapped in paper in middle of can. Fill bottom of can 1/4 inch with magnesium. Over this place mixture of 3 parts ferric oxide and 2 parts aluminum powder. Remove stick (leaving paper tunnel) and fill hole with mixture 3 parts potasssium chlorate and 1 part sugar. Top the hole with a paper bag containing chlorate-sugar mix with fuse protruding. Tamp top with dirt or clay. See diagram one. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- PYRO BOOK III Written By: Grey Wolf [7][16][85] HOW TO MAKE GREEK FIRE ---------------------- 1 parts sulfur (live) 2 parts charcoal (of willow) 6 parts saltpetre (potassium nitrate) Grind each element into a fine powder SEPERATLEY with a mortar and mix. When lit and thrown flaming, it carries the flame wherever it goes and splatters fire where it lands. The Greeks used this to win war at sea. The enemy had never seen anything like it and eventually perished. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- HOW TO MAKE GUN PROPELLANT -------------------------- 1.0 parts sulfur 1.5 parts charcoal (carbon) 7.5 parts saltpetre (potassium nitrate) (Looks farmiliar...) As with Greek Fire, it is ground seperately and mixed. This formulae produces Gun Propellant that burns at 1312 feet per second. Or 400 meters per second if you think in metric. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- MERCURY FULMINATES ------------------ Mercury Fulminate is a medium-power explosive that is commonly used in blasting caps, detonating devices in general, and as a stand-alone explosive. All fulminates, including mercury fulminate, are sensitive to shock and friction, and in no circumstances should they be handled in a rough or careless manner. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- MERCURY FULMINATE #1 (Shock Bomb) --------------------------------- Shock Bombs, or more properly, fulminate of mercury [Hg(ONC)2], are bombs that explode when jolted in any way, such as landing on someone's feet or shot from a distance with a BB gun. Add mercury (found in thermometers and strange gadgets at Radio Shack) to nitric acid (chemicals catalogs). DON'T TOUCH THE MERCURY. Now CAREFULLY add alcohol (rubbing alcohol or anything: drug or grocery store) to the mixture and voila! Instant Shock Bomb. I reccomend ripping the top off of a Coke can and stuffing a paper towel in to make it less likely to blow up when you don't want. GENTLY transfer the mixture to the Coke can and, if you want, it with another can to make it look more innocent. Now place it somewhere and throw a rock at it, shoot it with a wristrocket or BB gun and BOOM! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- MERCURY FULMINATE #2 -------------------- [-1-] Take 5 grams of pure mercury and mix it with 35 ml. of nitric acid. [-2-] The mixture is slowly and gently heated. As soon as the solution bubbles and turns green, one knows that the silver mercury is dissolved. [-3-] After it is dissolved, the solution should be poured, slowly, into a small flask of ethyl alcohol. This will result in red fumes. [-4-] After a half hour or so, the red fumes will turn white, indicating that the process is nearing its final stage. [-5-] After a few minutes, add distilled water to the solution. [-6-] The entire solution is now filtered, in order to obtain the small white crystals. These crystals are pure mercury fulminate, but should be washed many times, and tested with litmus paper for any remaining undesirable acid. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- MERCURY FULMINATE #3 -------------------- [-1-] Mix one part mercuric oxide with ten parts ammonia solution. When ratios are described, they are always done according to weight rather than volume. [-2-] After waiting eight to ten days, one will see that the mercuric oxide has reacted with the ammonia solution to produce the white fulminate crystals. [-3-] These crystals must be handled in the same way as Method #2 above, in that they must be washed many times and given several litmus paper tests. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- HOW TO MAKE A HIGH SCHOOL BOMB ------------------------------ I wouldn't know about this but the local newspaper reported a story on a car being totaled and a lady suffering serious burns on her torso after it exploded in her lap on the 4th of July. Anyway they reported the formula used... Easy. Add clorine to brake fluid in a glass bottle and run. Don't ask why it's called a high school bomb, that's just what friends of mine who already knew about it called it. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- CONVERTING A SHOTGUN INTO A GERNADE LAUNCHER -------------------------------------------- A 12- or 16-gauge shotgun is propped up with a set of folding legs, so as to form a tripod, with the butt of the gun being the third leg at about a 45- degree angle. The angle can be varied, for aiming, by moving the legs back and forth. To build a grenade launcher, one must take an open shell and remove all the shot. Once this is done, replace it with a smooth cylindrical stick, which has been cut down to a close fit. When the shell is loaded into the gun, the stick should extend out the muzzle of the gun. To the extended portion, a flat rubber base should be fixed and a "Molotov Cocktail" placed on it. This will send the burning bottles over a hundred yards with a good deal of accuracy. This is a good weapon for encirclement. _** / /* /_/ <--- Molotov Cocktail / / <--- stick // // /// <--- shotgun /// ///\ /// |\ _///\ | \ ||/ | \ <--- folding legs /// |___\ //// | \ ///// \ ////// -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- HOW TO MAKE A GOOD MOLOTOV COCKTAIL ----------------------------------- A "Molotov Cocktail" is a bottle filled with a flammable liquid such as gasoline, mixed with oil or soap powder to thicken it. A fuse, usally a rag soaked in gasoline, it attached to the cork, lit, and thrown. The bottle breaks on contact with another hard object, and the gasoline ignites, causing a burst of flame. These were used with a great degree of success in Hungary, against things as big as tanks. ** |*|* | |** <--- Gasoline-soaked rag fuse / \** |/////|* |/////| <--- 2/3 Gasoline |/////| |/////| |%%%%%| <--- 1/3 Oil |%%%%%| -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- HOW TO MAKE A HOMEMADE GRENADE ------------------------------ Parts: 5- to 6-Second Fuse (see to Pyro Book II) Cardboard Tube (cardboard mailer at post office (best), or paper towel roll) Iron Scraps (found at any machine shop, tell them its to fill a punching bag) Non-electric Blasting Cap (use mercury fulminate above) TNT (I could tell you but someone else already has.

Ammonium nitrate is a neat explosive that can be detonated with almost anything. There are two reasons for listing all fifty-six compunds. First, they are all different and, reasonably enough, all blow differently (some are more powerful, although I have not tried all 56). Some require more care than others too. Secondly, you may not have all the materials for one, but you might have all you need for the another. Enough talk. Here they are. All ratios are according to weight, not volume. 1) ammonium nitrate 60 2) ammonium nitrate 34 potassium nitrate 29.5 potassium nitrate 34 sulfur flour 2.5 T.N.T. 17 charcoal powder 4 ammonium chloride 15 woodmeal 4 4) ammonium nitrate 59 3) ammonium nitrate 59 ammonium sulfate 9 woodmeal 10 nitroglycern 6 nitroglycern 10 barium sulfate 7 sodium chlorate 20 dextrin 8 magnesium carbonate 1 6) ammonium nitrate 75 5) ammonium nitrate 88 aluminum powder 25 charcoal powder 12 8) ammonium nitrate 64 7) ammonium nitrate 94 T.N.T. 15 potassium nitrate 2 sodium chloride 21 charcoal powder 4 10) ammonium nitrate 35 9) ammonium nitrate 60 potassium nitrate 33 woodmeal 10 T.N.T. 12 nitroglycerin 10 ammonium chloride 20 sodium chloride 20 12) ammonium nitrate 92.5 11) ammonium nitrate 87 potassium bichromate2 charcoal powder 13 naphthalene 5.5}i/e
