Well you can’t order C4 on Alibaba either. But if you can get C4 you can likely get a mortar.

You can get C4 much more easily than you think plastic explosive has a ton of civilian uses from demolition to mining and oil and gas.

Mortars and mortar rounds on the other hand aren’t as easy to get and require trained crews to employ.

A mortar tube without training is nothing more than an exciting way to get yourself and your mates killed.
