Howdy folks, Two Feathers here:
As per a few requests, I’ve shortened my Large primer a bit. Now I’m making this Medium length primer. Don’t worry it’ll still hold plenty of powder. The price is $62.00 shipped in a padded envelope. I made it from an Elk antler tine. It has an oiled and waxed Spalted Maple cap. I left the tine color, natural.
There is a 3 grain charging valve, that’s filled through the body by unscrewing the knurled cap, then carefully removing the cap, plunger tube and spring. I’ll include written instructions and a tiny funnel to aid in filling the primer.
Disclaimer: This primer IS NOT to be used for any powder size other than FFFFg. BUT, I’m told these primers work fantastic with FFFg. A number of my customers use these regularly for priming with FFFg. without any issues. One customer just told me he uses FFg. in his. But I’m just giving you the valve manufacturer’s warning to avoid future issues. Again manufacturer’s warning: Trying to use these for some different grain size will jam them up and they will not work. That’s BS but I have to make you aware of the mfg.’s warning.
The primer measures 5-3/4”” long, base cap to valve . The base cap measures approx. 1” X 1-3/8”. These are ALL approximate measurements with a ruler. I wanted to make these a little more functional, so I’ve included a hand forged staple for carrying or tying to your bag.
One additional disclaimer:
My staples are all hand forged from 1095 high carbon steel stock. That being said, any attempts to bend, twist, squeeze or reshape the staple with cause it to snap.
The plug/cap is held on with 8 tiny, solid Brass nails.
I take PayPal, MO’s or checks.
This item cannot be shipped to Canada. If interested, please PM me here. As always, thanks for looking.
God bless:
