Tear Gas inside fire vault door

I'm sure there would be a huge stack of paperwork required for disposal.

There have been a few models that were explosive right from the factory... here are two that used a modified relocker mechanism as a firing pin, and fired rounds of ammunition in order to break the tear gas vials:

• US Patent 1,736,206
• US Patent 1,792,023

Not sure if this model was ever actually produced, but variants of smoke bombs were also patented, using some chemicals that I wouldn't want to be inhaling: US Patent 1,886,394.

The google patent search is cool. I didn't know about that.

TSC emailed me a manual once that discussed the safe removal of these and explosive charges. Interesting stuff, bytheway, anyone seen TSC, lately?

I do not know the name "TSC". Is that a person from this board?

He has not been around since May though and I have had a PM sitting in my outbox since then for him.

I also haven't seen him for a while. Here, or on another forum he used to frequent.

Not exactly tear gas, but this sign is on a safe in for service at a local safe shop.



May seem funny, until you realize the sign is legit. (They have been removed so the safe can be serviced). The safe belongs to a road construction company, and they use them to blast for the roads.

The kind I removed used a firing pin. It was a bit weird removing them, but all in a days work.

the times i find them i dispose of them by breaking in a bucket of soapy water to dilute it and neutralize it. Customers always think they are cool to they are told how deadly they are 50+ years later

explosive tear gas. I certainly hope they were the exception.....

Did not know a chemical change resulted in explosive; that is scary. I removed a single vial from a large HHM records type safe a few months ago. The housing was mounted directly behind the lockpack; thus any action driving the spindle inward would break the vial.
