Manufacturing primers
 

Anyone have any suggestions for books, plans, schematics regarding manufacturing your own primers?

Same for ammunition. Not simply reloading manuals.

Your user name at least the first part will fit .

I am sure it can be done..

but the risk would be sky high..
Getting the mix right and all
Not a safe thing to do, unless you or some one you know has a chemical background..
And fully understand what you are working with and have all the safety protocols in place..!!

I know how to use Google and others.

Thank you

I read,I think on here, that match heads work perfectly to re-fill used primers.

probably one that you don't want your IP traced back from, try to use a proxy or untraceable IP if you go browsing or downloading... just to be safe.
looks a little like the old TOTSE site.

Tune in to Mark Kornke's show on the "Microeffect" radio station M-F 9-11 est as the MM guys are makeing that a big priority. Lots of of unused manufactoring facilities skills and Peed-Off people around Detroit these days and I'm sure they will get it done.

Old style used fulminate of mercury. New style uses lead styphanate. Both are so unstable that the primer is assembled while the priming compound is still wet. They dry after they are in the tray. Even then, they are not "primed". You do that when you seat it in the primer cup. That pushes the anvil into contact with the primer pellet.

I guess the moral of that video is to buy enough primers. "Where did that hair come from?" funny.

DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME. This guy is an irresponsible idiot for putting this on the internet. No way to control how much priming compound is applied or how much flash is generated, and it will result in erratic and possibly excess pressures, and damage to your firearm.

I once had a friend severly burn his right hand while cutting up match heads for rocket ignition. The match heads ignited while packing the mixture into the rocket. His hand was out of commission for 6 months and the fingers had to be surgically separated when they became fused together.

He said "this is for last resort purposes only". Most likely you will get a click before a bang. I am planning on trying it but with only one round in my Glock and I will be wearing a heavy duty glove. Hopefully I won't be getting a Kaboom, lol!
