I have one Springfield sent to me. Mine cousin borrowed it but I really didn't know how he used it that when I get it back, it won't even scratched the primer pocket!

Can it be sharpened? Because I cannot buy one here even though I have the money!

It can be sharpened by using a soft flat oilstone and light cutting oil , but it has to be done properly to maintain the angles and a uniform Diameter. It is time consuming, depending how bad the edges are now...

It needs to be sharpened like a milling cutter, i.e. with the proper back clearance, etc. Is there a machine shop anywhere near you? They might be able to help.

What type do you want? Why can't you order one from the states?
