You can get some of the original versions of halon extinguishers on eBay...
There are a few liquidators which are clearing the older stock for
merchants. I have two and not ONE elephant has EVER shown his head ;-)


You can still get Halon ones from the aircraft suppliers.

Fire on board is real bad. You're only option is to get down QUICK. If the
extinguisher gives you another minute or so, it's done it's job. I have a friend
who lost his plane to in-flight fire. Another minute or so in the air and I would
have lost my friend as well.
