Hmmmm. . . .

. . ., this may not be the best of ideas. You might want to research
black powder, the corrosive mess, the amount of cleaning, etc.
Also, it has a tremendous smoke signature that really gives away your position and that could be bad in a fractured society.

Its so nice of you to label people who like to plan for this kind of situation as being paranoid.
