Thanks for purchasing my ATF/DVD's , I see you are located just south of Pittsburgh Pa. Next year we will get you up to my annual sportsman club display for you to put that license to use, I am always looking to add new people into the hobby. Wow, this is cool for me, I am hearing from multiple people all over getting their ATF license , interviews etc. This is a great time to do it, then come next year you will be ready. Also, soon I will be announcing a new 1.3 distributor in the Pittsburgh area, that will give us yet another option to purchase 1.3 product. I predict your initiative to purse this will soon pay off. Keep us posted, thanks for joining the forums.
As I state in the video, the interview is more of an educational event and not a test. Relax.

Welcome to the Forum Marky. Like the others said, relax--it is basically a check list with the agent to be sure you know what you are doing & understand everything. Keep us posted on your progress. Also, good to hook up with a pyro club to get some training & experience & you will meet a lot of great people Pa Pyro Artists & Crackerjacks both have multiple events throughout the year in PA.

Marky, I hope your ATF interview went well, keep us posted when you receive the "Blue Envelope" with your ATF permit. You will be ready for new years eve.
I see you are in Fayette County Pennsylvania, there are 12 ATF license people in that county, you will make 13. For a total of 337 plus in Pennsylvania.

The highest ATF fireworks county in Pennsylvania is Westmoreland. (27 people)

^ surprises me? I would in general think the most would be near New Castle were the two big name companies are? Or the most populated co.
Dave could you post or email me the numbers in Butler, Mercer, and Allegeheny?

I have an advertiser selling 1.3 here in Manchester. We can make that 8 an 80 if we want to. all it takes is a desire to do so.

Thanks Dave! lol! not many in that county. I think that most people just think it is impossible to obtain or don't want to go through the process. After getting your DVD and the contingency from ACE PYRO, it really is simple. The cops tell you stories every time you go to get your fingerprints about fireworks to try to make you feel bad, but other than that, the process was pretty easy.

I would be curious on which county has the most and I would bet it would be more west or southwest counties that has the highest. Or maybe middle of the state.
