Yes, Halon is a major ozone depleting chemical. it is on the banned CFC list. legal to have, just not to manufacture. they are available from fire extinguisher locales in reclaimed form... $$$$$$$ for even the small ones. oh, if you have any halon extinguishers, most fire extinguisher refillers will pay big bucks for them.
