I always enjoy a good story like this.  First because it is not against Arizona law to sell inert grenades.  Second, because it is not against federal law to sell inert grenades.  Third, because the cops, prosecutor, judge and stacked jury (if they get one) will of course find numerous laws to convict them of doing a perfectly legal activity and both sleep well at night and live long and prosper.  America---what a country.  I guess the DPS needed some publicity with proposed budget cuts and all in the legislature so they arrested people doing perfectly legal activities...because they can.

With every story spewing from the DPS the more the people are beginning to think they are the biggest bunch of dipshits in the country. Piece of advice...SHUT UP!

There is NOTHING illegal here. The Arizona Republic is just a piece of trash to print this garbage!

What a pile of non-sense, why buy something you have to rework it and hope it will work when due to the poor economy their you could just pay a soldier to get you the real deal or they could just go south to Central America and buy explosives, fully auto M16, M2 .50 cal that the CIA sent the rebels.

Joel you are da man!

These guys are idiots. Who the hell except law enforcement would pay $400 each for items that anyone else can order the parts for and put together for less than $40?!?!
