    My friend got his license and he said it was super easy. Just make sure you got the proper storage and safety regulations going on before they come out and check it out for themselves when they interview you, other than passing a background check you'll be able to get a license super easy. Be safe, have fun.

    Great information in this video. Like our host said, in some states you need various permits and other licenses. IN TEXAS, YOU MUST HAVE THE TYPE 54 LICENSE TO PURCHASE 1.3G DISPLAY TYPE FIREWORKS, BUT THATS NOT ALL. You still must, in addition, obtain a recreational permit for a fee, and still basically follow the same rules and procedures as for public displays! Even if you only want to put on shows on private land for your own personal use, YOU STILL HAVE TO PRODUCE VISUAL PLANS FOR YOUR FIREWORKS DISPLAY SHOWING WHERE THE AUDIENCE WILL BE, AND WHERE THE FIREWORKS ARE TO BE LAUNCHED. THE PLANS HAVE TO GET APPROVAL BY THE FIRE MARSHAL OF YOUR COUNTY OR NEARBY CITY, AND YOU BETTER FOLLOW YOUR PLANS EXACTLY AS YOU ILLUSTRATED THEM. You also need to have the tract of land you chose for your show inspected and approved in advance, which is done for a fee, and INSURANCE IS REQUIRED. Another thing to know about Texas is that even people wanting to use 1.3G professional fireworks as a hobby on privately owned land is that they have to take a closed book 50 question test for another fee, and pass it. If you fail, you must wait 1 week before you re-take this test. If you fail 3 times, you have to wait 1 year to take the test again, SO STUDY HARD and keep your knowledge sharp. Texas is really serious about users of 1.3G display fireworks to really know their stuff, both professional and hobbyists alike. You might be required to have a fire Marshall officer on hand to supervise your show; he or she can stop the show, or not let you start your show if they are not happy with your emergency plans to extinguish any fires that may occur. In shorter words, in Texas, they will meticulously check everything out to their satisfaction. This may not be a popular or even a common hobby in Texas for these reasons mentioned, plus others. I just decided to not get into the 1.3G DISPLAY TYPE FIREWORKS for now, and I'm very sad about my decision due to the cost, and what all is required to set things up. I may consider it later on down the road.

    I would recommend an 8 hour training session through PGI international to learn all the rules and small details of safely shooting 1.3 fireworks. The time is well worth it as well as the few dollars it cost for the course materials. Most companies that sell 1.3 fireworks can set you up with information on upcoming course dates.

    Regarding state requirements; In my state (NH), you need a permit, license, insurance, proper site with proper distances, and fire coverage. Heaven forbid they catch you without those things. I would hazard a guess that if they are going to require a permit, you're going to have to have all 5. Keep in mind, 1.3 stuff is going to be obviously bigger and louder. You're going to get noticed.

    Thanks god I don't have to deal with this in my country lol. The US boggles me when it comes to firework restrictions. I see 3 inch preloaded shells for sale regularly here in Brazil. Up to 8 inch shells are legal, but are incredibly expensive, so very few people buy them. Last time I went to a store, a 3 inch preloaded was the equivalent of 10-15 dollars. Our regular consumer fireworks are far bigger than the ones I see americans use. But our gun laws and a lot of other things here suck, so there's that.

And the shitty thing is, you cant have those either, maximum sentence on having a gun is like 4 years...

    Was thinking about getting my ATF license to shoot off 3” shells and salutes. But I’m an Indiana resident and I normally do my shoots at a friends parents house in the state of Illinois. After learning about all the BS hoops I would need to jump through in Illinois, i abandoned the idea. I’m attending a PGI shooters course in October so I can buy 1.4 pro fireworks. That way I can buy some smaller salute cakes. If you’re a pyro in Illinois, just leave the damn state.

Do you remember the specifics or are they only asking why you want the license? If so, the interview should be short? Can I ask questions about other things as well? Sorry, this is a weird request. If you make a follow up video, could you include this topic? That would really be a big help. Thanks again for educating everyone!

They weren’t very hard questions that I remember. And yes you will be able to ask the agent anything you would like.

      Unless they have a specific reason to check, they will go over your records at the end of your 3 years, sometime before you are due to renew. They will call and set up an appointment just like the first time you were interviewed. They will go over all of your purchase documents at that time. If you have a storage magazine, they will inspect and check your paperwork regarding that as well. Keep in mind that the ATF only has so many agents. Unless there is a complaint, or some reason for them come "spur of the moment", it will most likely be once every 3 years. Keep in mind that your type 54 license is only good for purchasing product. that is it. It is up to you, to make sure you are following your state and local laws regarding all other aspects of fireworks. You need to check with your state and local authorities to see what is required to be able to shoot them. The ATF does have the right to come and inspect at any time.

      There is no distance requirement for trees. As long as your not shooting through them you will be fine. The distance requirements for houses and spectators is 70 feet per inch of shell. So a 3 inch shell is 210 feet roughly.

      One thing about Michigan, the consumer law lets you shoot consumer fireworks on certain holidays. most of my friends shoot their product then, when every one else is! If you are trying to do a public shoot, especially not on your own property, you will need to get permits, which will most likely require insurance for the show, fire marshal approval of the site, approved safety protocols, law enforcement notification, and so on. it can get quite expensive. Most people just say forget it. However, If you join a fireworks club, They will do various shoots a year, they get all the requirements met, and you can go shoot for the cost of your fireworks!

      Yeah you “need” a permit in South Carolina but if you’re doing private displays you don’t need anything but a type 54. E g if you are the only person liable you don’t need a permit or license this is put lined on their state website. If you want a magazine though you’ll need the permit which isn’t a bad you just need to participate in 6 shows. Tennessee I believe doesn’t have any permits or licenses for a magazine.

      Well, he states that you are going to have to follow local rules and ordinances? Setting off 1.3 display safely is just as regulated. So you can’t just shoot them whenever. However, it definitely pays to have your own private land! Otherwise you may as well go work for a display company! Which isn’t a bad idea either. Bottom line is, I would have land, storage, and everything planned out before you get your Type 54. You will be much happier you did.

    Hey great video. Young future pyro here, what is a magazine (that you were taking about)? is it like a storage container so like if you get a 24/1 case of 3" shells assorted peonies or something, you just keep track so once its approved by the ATF for being secure or whatever. So its like ok I shot off 6 blue peonies, 6 green peonies, 6 yellow peonies, 4 orange peonies, and I got 2 orange peonies left, 6/6/21? Or is it something else. Sorry a bit difficult for me to comprehend some of it cause im 12 but I got the gist of it. Thank you! Also once u get everyone done and stuff how do u actually OBTAIN the 1.3 items. I assume you have to drive to the nearest supplier, then buy em, drive back. Also lets say you cant have a contingency storage (whatever that is) so you get your fireworks you drive a long time to get em, 24 hours pass by and then you have to drive back and give them to them until the next time (whatevers not shot off) ? I feel like im missing something cause I cant imagine ppl putting on shows buying like 15 cases and then having to shoot and set up in 24 hours. I know im asking alot of questions sorry its just confusing and its alot of legal stuff that I likely wont understand till im 21 lol

So whenever you buy a case of 3s and don't shoot them all within 24hrs then you log them back into storage and the ATF will be happy. You must keep ALL records of 1.3 products to turn into the ATF when they show up for inspection. And if your buying pyro from a long distance you have transport time that doesn't count towards your 24hrs contingency time. I still need to read up on all the rules associated with long distance travel with 1.3 pyro. Hopefully I helped clear this up for you. Glad to see you interested in fireworks at such a young age.

      I think you need to experience some life first, then come back when you are 21. I figure by now you about 14 lol. Learn to be a responsible adult first. Trust me I was in your shoes about fireworks at this age, and this is the best advice I can give! Aside from maybe gaining some experience soon working for a display company.

    Hey im in the process of getting my license and was going to use ACE for contingency. Have you bought 1.3 from them? I'm curious how there prices stack up against others in michigan

      I haven’t bought from ACE yet they are a decent drive for me. I’ll have to take a peek at their prices and see what they are like compared to my distributor in Indiana.

      This is an FEL. Federal Explosives License/Permit. Basically the same thing.

      Yes demolition explosives fall under the Type 54 too if I’m not mistaken. And for indoor storage I think that may be Type 4. But you can easily look that up. With my license I can buy and use c4 and other explosives besides fireworks.
