Shoafy, getting Ammonium Nitrate may be a little harder than you'd think. Go ask for some in a garden center and watch the response.
Seriously, I think Dept of Ag requires a signature and a handling permit for more than 5 pounds. Prove me wrong, though, if you can. All that you buy will also contain tagents, little microscopic chips with serial numbers and RFID's that will set off a metal detector, yet are not magnetic.
No, you cannot just go into a store and buy a gun in the US. Many states now have instantaneous background checks. Everywhere, you must leave a record and positive ID. And it's a 5 day wait (with the local PD getting a copy of your info) on pistols.
