You are still infantile as ever.

Hypocrite!

Oh, well. Meanwhile, please check
with someone other than your dad about M80's

I lived in Cincinnati, right across the river from the Kentucky
plant that made them for the Army, you retarded ****.

and where their oxygen
comes from. You may learn something.

I am fully aware of how they are constructed, and why there IS
airspace in them.

Consider how much oxygen is consumed when they explode, compared to
how
much oxygen is in that airspace:

M80s have something like 99% or more of their oxidation done by oxygen
in non-gaseous material that they have.

I doubt that any of the oxidizer comes from "air". It's not where it
needs to be when the flame front gets there.

In fact, air just gets in the way - some portion of the blast energy gets
dissipated by the shock wave.

Cheers!
