potassium perchlorate (or just chlorate but its a little more shock sensitive) and aluminum powder
nowadays you gotta make you a chlorate cell and a ball mill unless you only want to buy it like a pound at a time

Skylighter has a spend 80 something bucks and get 3 lbs of perc free.
To do it right you need German dark aluminum. Most places won't sell it unless you are an established customer or have an fel type 20. There are some questionable ebay/Amazon sellers that have it under different names, may be honeypots

Chief: Bomb squad caused Los Angeles fireworks explosion
Los Angeles bomb technicians overloaded a containment chamber with homemade fireworks last month during a detonation, likely causing a catastrophic explosion that injured 17 people and rocked a neighborhood, the police chief said Monday. Chief Michel Moore said five members of the department’s...
They arrived at 16.5 pounds by estimating that the smaller explosives — there were 280 of them — each weighed about a half an ounce (14 grams) in that standard measurement. The bomb technicians estimated that the 44 larger explosives — which were about the size of a soda can with a fuse — had about 1.5 ounces (42.5 grams) worth of flash powder.
Federal authorities who weighed the remains after the blast calculated that the weight was actually more than 42 pounds (19 kilograms) in the standard measurement. The smaller explosives were actually 1.37 ounces (38.9 grams) and the larger ones were about 5 ounces (142 grams).
The detonation chamber's maximum capacity is 15 pounds (6.8 kilograms) for multiple uses or 25 pounds (11 kilograms) for a single use, Moore said. The LAPD has not publicly identified the manufacturer of the detonation chamber, despite repeated requests.
The truck-mounted chamber used during the June 30 explosion had been in service for a decade and this was its 42nd time in use.

Seems like the standard would be to just use the total weight of the item, not guess how much flash powder someone stuffed inside

Seems like taking that stuff to the local gravel pit and just blowing it up might have been a better idea than having no idea how to use your own equipment......in a populated area.

Could have just blew them up one at a time in the middle of the street like fireworks were intended to be lit off.Seems like taking that stuff to the local gravel pit and just blowing it up might have been a better idea than having no idea how to use your own equipment......in a populated area.

Contrary to my ass
They're cops. They don't have to play it safe like that because they don't get held accountable for their fuck ups.
