Firecracker Mk 2 Mod 0

General: This firecracker is used as a practice charge for booby traps and firing devi-ces. It produces a loud report, bright flash, and smoke. It is designed to reduce the ha-zard of flying particles attendant upon use of a standard potassium perchlorate firecrac-ker. It is classified as fireworks, since it contains no high explosive. Although coated with a waterproofing material it should be stored in a dry place.

Installation: The coupling base of any standard firing device is pusjed through the wax-filled hole in the hollowed end of the firecracker and rotated clockwise until at least two threads of the coupling base are inside the hollowed end.
