Can you buy large quantities of things like Tannerite over the counter? The top Notable Incident on wiki is about someone who set off 100 lb, and it seems like it was only a problem because he was on probation. From their web site it is $75 for 10 lb, could you just walk into a shop with $750 and walk out with 100 lb of tannerite or some similar binary ammonal?

Considering there are youtube videos of setting off 100 pounds of tannerite, maybe? Most stores probably wouldnt have that much on stock would be my guess, and would have to special order it. Local laws will vary, so some areas may have limits, require permits or ban it.

Tidö parties agree on new gun legislation – AR-15 banned in hunting in Sweden
Translation by thinking machine:
The government and the Sweden Democrats agree on a new gun regulation.
The controversial rifle AR-15 is banned in hunting. At the same time, a series of easings are proposed for both hunters and sports shooters.
The government and the cooperation party SD have agreed on some changes to gun legislation. After the mass murder in Örebro, it has wanted to change the gun laws and ban the semi-automatic weapon AR-15, which was not used during the shooting.
On Monday, representatives of Tidöpartirna – Minister of Justice Gunnar Strömmer (M), Minister for Rural Affairs Peter Kullgren, Henrik Vinge (SD), Chairman of the Judiciary Committee and Martin Melin (L), legal policy spokesperson – proposed in legislation.
Prohibited by coercive redemption
Like what Ekot had announced in advance that AR-15 is banned in hunting. It means in a first step a change in regulation, where the police from August 1 will no longer grant new permits for hunting with the rifle.
In a second stage, existing permits for hunting with these weapons shall cease to apply.
Hunters who want to keep their AR-15 will have two years to meet the requirements for sports shooting instead. Otherwise, the weapon must be sold or redeemed.
The state then gives 100 percent of the weapon's market value at the time of purchase, instead of 80 percent proposed by the government's investigators. This is estimated to cost the state of SEK 175 million.
The government aims to present a bill this autumn.
AR-15 has been allowed for hunters to use when hunting since August 2023, when the Environmental Protection Agency changed the rules. Since then, thousands of hunters have had time to get it. The redeemed weapons will be donated to war-torn Ukraine.
Relief for hunters and sports shooters
Other semi-automatic weapons will be allowed in the future.
"We know there is a discussion of course, which weapons should be allowed or not," Strömmer said.
Tidö parties also want to tighten the suitability test of people who want a firearms license. The police and the National Board of Health and Welfare are due to submit an initial report on this in September.
At the same time, a series of easing, including an expanded gun wardrobe -- from four hunting weapons to eight, with the possibility of a ninth and tenth if hunters can justify a need. It will also be easier for legal gun holders to store weapons in a place other than at home.
In addition, the licence for goalscorers should not have to be renewed every five years as today, something the Police warned about when it considers that it fulfils an important role in ensuring that only people who have actual need of these weapons are allowed to possess them.

Uh...I don't see how this is connected to Finland. Do you mean Sweden?
Oh dear, what a mistake to make.
