another party. The official definition from 18 U.S.C. Section 2332a is:
Any explosive, incendiary, poison gas, bomb, grenade, or rocket having a
propellant charge of more than four ounces [113 g], missile having an
explosive or incendiary charge of more than one-quarter ounce [7 g], or
mine or device similar to the above. (2) Poison gas. (3) Any weapon
involving a disease organism. (4) Any weapon that is designed to release
