This is good news. I was wondering who/if some company would do this. Black powder matters.

Nice to hear, although I don't use a lot of black powder these days.

Good old Estes! Same folks have sold model rockets to millions of folks for decades. Located in Penrose, Colorado (about 25 miles west of Pueblo on US Highway 50, near the southern boundary of Fort Carson Army base). I drive by there frequently and remember the advertisements in magazines back in the 1960s. Large "HELP WANTED" sign out front.

Excellent to see somebody doing vertical integration and since they make rockets for not just household use but the military, it's nice to see somebody working to keep tactically-important manufacturing going in the US.

I just counted and I have 19 muzzleloaders and a couple of antique breechloaders that need to be fed BP. I think they multiply in the safe.

Good to see GOEX back in production. If you have powder, God will provide rocks
