Jay,
Funny you mention Halon:
Halon is a key component of the fire suppression system in ALL Bradley Fighting 
Vehicles and M1A1 tanks....hmmm...
Very effective, but not fun to breathe...been there, done that
Any old MG could use the same system for Safety Fast if one was willing to 
spend the $$$ (obligatory LBC content)
;)

My halon fire extinguisher is starting to show signs of discharging.  Does 
anyone have a modern alternative to the halon?  Vendors?

Prices?


Oh, how I wish I could just have my halon extinguisher filled.

But no, greenhouse this, global warming that.

To anyone who isn't familiar, halon has been banned in the U.S. 

If you have a halon extinguisher, you can use it, but you can't refill it.
