Free shipping for orders of $150 or more and no hazmat. Has anyone else on here bought these?
    That's all I use right now. I ordered 5000 and have had no misfires.

    I bought these SA primers when everything else was out of stock. Im about half way thru a 5000 piece order. They work just fine in my hammer fired guns, but I do get light strikes in my striker fired ones. Maybe 2 or 3 per hundred.

    Are small pistol primers all they offer?
    Most folks see a firearm as rifle, pistol, shotgun, ect.... I see a canvas.

    Yes, they're the only primers offered. I need to watch that site close in case large rifle and large pistol primers show up.

    Hello, Yes, I have bought a few thousand of these small pistol primers from Powder Valley. I think they are generally good primers. Of the 1,000 or so that I have loaded in 9mm, I have had 2 that would not ignite. Since this is target ammo, no big deal to me.

    Thanks for the heads up, I just ordered 3,000, plus a roll of tape to get me over the $150 threshold.

    I loaded and fired 50 of these primers in small primer pocket 45 ACP and they worked just fine.
