Under current law, people can buy up to 50 pounds of explosive "black powder" with no background check, and can buy unlimited amounts of other explosive powders, such as "black powder substitute" and "smokeless powder."

Lautenberg's bill would require a background check for the purchase of any of these powders.

Lousenberg's real agenda here is to eliminate the practice of reloading ammunition. In many Turd World socialist hellholes, the sort of places that 0bama and his cronies wish to emulate, reloading is a capital offense.

There are limits on how much black powder (explosive), and gun powder (propellant) a person can transport (without a permit).

There are also storage requirements for amounts, and container design, that are developed for fire purposes, and that have been adopted by some states.
