i'd be careful with red flares day or night, they are INTERNATIONAL distress symbol and can cause an emergency responce if seen by a plane or boat. Even the coast guard and military send out warnings when practicing with them. Even white flares can cause some issues,

Good point Gavin.

I'll call the RCC before I start playing with flares. (It helps when you know a watch officer and some of the staff there, eh?)

Ahh yes, it is surprising how fast they react to the flares at night even 5 miles inland from Lake Superior . Please check with your local authorities, some have specific days a year to practice with flares.

RGR.

BTW, I checked in with Atlantic Aero Marine today, and they stated that they are unable to get any stock shipped since 9/11. Dangerous goods transport regs have also affected their ability to get them.

If there was a great demand for them, they might be able to find some by looking around, but they recommended a couple of other locations for them. (none local to me though.)

So get a machinist friend to turn a 37mm to 1inch adapter and have fun with the cheap stuff.

 

[NavyShooter]

Oh damn.

Now that's a fine idea.

Let me work on that one a bit.

[Liquid_Snake]

Hey would those 1" flares work with 26.5mm flare guns? Would those 1" shells be reloadable?

Do they no longer make smoke round in 37mm? I still have a few left from the old days.
