How bad do you need primers?

That reminds me that I used to seat a strike anywhere wooden match into my BB gun, and send it down range against a solid object and it exploded.

Me and a friend wrote a small booklet about this in 1979 .....published it in 1980 and again on Amazon last year.

Re: How bad do you need primers?
Can't think of that kind of an emergency but knowledge is power and it doesn't cost you nothing to store it in your gray matter.
As of now I'm running 50K primers of all kinds and a 1/4 million spent primers (within a thousand) since I started keeping a log in 1980 I've saved all of my spent primers.....probably 200 pounds and......they are copper.
People who do such strange things like saving spent primers tells you that person started out with little, especially money. Even saved all my spent condoms...just a little wash and hang em by the window, then stretch em back on.

Re: How bad do you need primers?
Funny I do the same - have a big bin of old primers myself. As for the condoms, I worry they may not be reliable re-used, so use the old ones as pillow cases.Sixgun wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 1:39 am . . . and a 1/4 million spent primers (within a thousand) since I started keeping a log in 1980 I've saved all of my spent primers.....probably 200 pounds and......they are copper.
