Back when I was a kid, the mythical book that every 3-letter agency would come after you for was The Anarchists Cookbook.

Which really wasn't "all that" you could better stuff out of military field/technical manuals

Improvised Munitions Handbook (Improvised Explosive Devices or IEDs): TM 31-210 (Department of the Army Technical Manual)

I've collected some digital pdfs of that sort. Lord help us all if it ever is needed. When I was a kid we'd make firecrackers out of caps (from capguns). We'd compete to see how big and loud we could make them. It was all fun and games until one day I was pulling the pin out of a completed one (holding pen in one hand, firework in the other) and a spark blew it up with me holding it. Thus suspended my explosive career. Until I got in the army and they made me the EOD specialist dude. Practiced with c4, dynamite, various shape charges, det cord etc etc. Blew up all kinds of things. Yet I never got over my fear, and rare was the time I was crimping a blasting cap that I didn't reflect on my youth. You only need one mistake....

Potasiumchorate and Sugar along with a little powdered aluminum, or magnesium.

Back in the late 90s when the brand new internet was a free for all. I saw everything from a drop in AR auto sear on Ebay to a recipe to make C4. Never downloaded anyting but I did print it out. Just for information reasons..............There even was a web site back then that showed snuff clips!

Ah, the good ol' days. Back when there were no search engines and everything was porn. I'll never forget my first two class projects fueled by internet research: the government of the United States and my favorite car at the time, Jaguars (Both whitehouse.com and jaguar.com had nekkid ladies on them back then)

Yep! I still have some and this was the under ground bible back in the day 30 years ago. This book would make the liberal left have a heart attack. Seeing what you guys are posting made me go out in the garage and clean the dust off this book. I have not checked it out this book for at least 20 years. Knowledge is King!

Iron oxide and aluminum powder, light it with a strip of magnesium. Stand back, don't look, burns really hot and bright. Throws off enough UV to give you a sunburn. Burns at 5000 degrees.
