Import Tips
• Include Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) detailing flash point and sensitivity to confirm small arms propellant status
• Avoid bulk packaging over 50 lbs per container to minimize explosion risk during customs inspection
• Check country-of-origin restrictions as some propellant ingredients may trigger ITAR export controls
