it has 25 shots of flashbangs. Not quite as loud as TK's but nice non the less - and probably only about 1/2 the cost as they are packed 24/1's

Would this be the current? Or has there been a change. It's all I could find.

back a number of years ago there were two versions of the 25 shot firing squad 1.3 and 1.4 (Class B or C) i had fired both of them and there wasn't much of a difference, as i recall they were purchased from phantom i'll have to go back and look at my old and i mean old color catalogs and find a pic

Firing Squad is like a mini thunderking. Still loud but not quite as loud as the tk's. There about half the size of most 25 shot thunderkings. I love the 24/1 packing :)

at the 24/1 packaging it is quite a deal. Just group them in 4's and light same time. Right there with the thunderkings then.

I used a 25 shot cake called Thunder Flower's in show I did couple weeks back. It was LOUD. Loved it. Plan on getting a couple cases for July

Lidu makes the best. 49 shot quick salutes or the 2 1/2 inch 4 second salute cakes, great for the end of a finale.

I only seen it lately in the 1.3 categorie.

My finale I like to use a 49 shot salute cake that goes off in 10 seconds. I put 3 or 4 together spaced 2.5 seconds apart

As far as I know there just 1.3 now. I did come across a 1.4 version but the effect was not salutes...

Any other overloads you guys want to talk about?

Shame on the locos who bring attention to themselves.

1.3 FS's are available in several different versions. I have seen them as mentioned being lighter than a regular TK, and also just as good.

If it is 1.4, then you are talking about an overload, and drawing attention to people that don't want big mouths putting things out there on an open forum. Loose lips sink ships.

If Dave wants Ol's talked about then so be it. It will be the end of this place before everyone even knows what hit them. Wake up folks.

Im a little confused, what are you talking about by an "overload"?

Pyro Nation

"overload" refers to a cake with more powder in it that allowed

Firing Squad is a nice little "crossover" salute cake when one is migrating to, or adding 1.3 to your show. Quality of Firing Squad like many other 1.3 cakes varies greatly from mfg/vendor to mfg/vendor. For example last year I bought 1 case of Battle Of Color from three different (3) sources. Cake dimensions varied both in height of gun and bore resulting in some I hated to some I enjoyed. On a positive note, I now know where to acquire my future 36 Shot Battle of Color cases.
