Black powder is. Also the media doesn't say the quantity of powder he bought. In any case I'm sure it was enough to send up a flag in G&G's eyes.

Seriously, there are more info behind the scene not reported. Good catch.

Again.. Pvt Joe Snuffy had been flagged for AWOL, Dropped from roles and listed. FBI and DA would have them in the system. Buy explosives and you get checked. if you don't get checked your dealer knows you.

No 9mm ammo. That is suspicious.

This may fall under the heading fool me once...
Not profiling. Guns Galore runs a check on ANYONE buying black powder, unless you have a chl or they know you by name. AWOL would have been in the FBI database, and yes they are on the ball these days.
