Any firecrackers, M-80's, block busters, bottle rockets, roman candles, mortars, or any other devices that launch a projectile and/or make a “bang”/detonation/report are NOT LEGAL under RI General Laws 11-13-1.
Cone displays that shoot sparks upwards to 3-7 feet and make crackling sounds which are sold in stores are legal.
