This question is being posed after a large amount of weapons were found in domestic dispute case in Saddle Brook. A man was stabbed by his wife, and she was charged. The police found the husband’s gun collection and confiscated it in accordance with protocol. He may be charged for the massive amount of gunpowder in his possession.

Goex sells a lot of them, a few different types.

How much black powder do you want together in the same container?

Intimidating one person is easy

Intimidating millions...not so much.

And if that happened to me, I’d be raising holy he!! about it.

I don’t think we have millions of people each storing hundreds of pounds of gunpowder.

I don't know much about black powder, but if I had to store any quantity it would be under the same conditions for dynamite.

As for smokeless powder, before my tragic ice fishing accident, I reloaded a few cartridges. Many took well more than 70 grains, meaning less than a 100 cartridges per pound. I don't like to change component lots in the middle of a run, so 1 pound cans are off the table.

to answer the question, yes there should be a limit. How much can you fit in your domicile? That much plus least ten percent for “wastage.”

Now I need to read the article and comments....

“How about a limit on the amount of food you can own?”

got news for you. In many places, there are laws restricting how much food you can store. Germany, for example, no more than 3 days worth, any more is considered hoarding. That was as of my stay there from 1991 to 1996. I have not found any such laws here in the US, but I’d not really be surprised. I do know Mormons are considered weird by many people because they do store food (and clothing and fuel) for hard times.
