- this is not meant to be tutorial or anything like that. it just shows what works the best for me and how you use this information is all up to you.
it's very tricky to get the right cups, sometimes you get lucky, sometimes not. on a good run, i could get 5-10 cups in 5 minutes but on the other hand, i might only get 1-2 so i guess you'll get better over time. the primers i made take very strong spring and large mass(firing pin) to set off so for lighter firing mechanism, you might want to go with softer materials like aluminum. if your gun can set of real primers, then you can skip all this and buy the real thing.
THIS IS FOR LOW PRESSURE ROUNDS ONLY!!!!! (or percussion guns)
So again, just be very carful with her, she is very sensitive and have fun but stay safe!
I watched this 9 years ago... and it's still good today. Honestly, I miss you, dude. Your craftsmanship, calm explanations, and cool projects were YT gold.
There's more people starting to get into this hobby now.

And you also like hunting .. 👽
If you don’t have the metal sheeting, just reuse the old primer cap by using a piece of metal rod (the blunt end of a drill bit) which fits inside the cap to punch out the dimple from the previous firing, then finish the way this video says to.
Depends on the kind of primer. Some can be knocked out with a small rod inserted trough the mouth of the casing. If you can't, you can drill it out.
thats a berdan primed shell. to remove just fill it pretty close to the top with water, find a punch the size of the bullet bore, put the primer over a hole, and hammer the punch down
😂😂😂😂
@@discoverytravels7426 Whats funny?
I just drill it than take it out, I hand load and prime with tools I have available. Never bought any of those fancy thingy majigys
This proves that gun/ammo restrictions don’t work, they can’t get rid of either.
Good video mate, this technique could be useful in the future if our governments keep making restrictions
yah they cannot take away guns but they can ammo so we just have to make it
I would never have thought that cap gun caps would be strong enough to use as the explosive to ignite the powder
Any impact sensitive material is good, basically.
If you grind matchheads and mix it with ground dust from the side of the matchbox and put it in the primer...it will corrode the shit out of your barrel, but it works.
Using spent primer cups aside, this is the most dependable method of building a primer. Dependable, as in useful and functional. Other methods yield less reliable results.
Great video.!! (I heard you just fine.btw)
looks like your homemade primer got pierced during the test fire, would be interesting to see a fully reloaded round fired
Yes this is a problem
Best primer video I could find. Thanks for showing us how. I feel totally less stressed about running out of primers now.

learning the basics for how to make a primer or to take a spent cartrage and turn it back into a round you can use again for hunting or self defense is PRICELESS.
Not exactly priceless when they are commonly available rounds,

Funny how those comments aged like a fine milk. The current situation is exactly what this was intended for, not being a cheap ass.
Rob Calhoun , would you want me to give you $28.89?? Lol. I don’t need to make my own primers. I will never experience an ammo shortage. You could shut down all ammo manufacturers on this entire planet and reloading suppliers, and I will still be going to the range shooting lots of ammo for the next 5 years. What ammo shortage? I didn’t know we had an ammo shortage.
@@albertforletta1498 Nope, can't shoot money. But some ammo would be nice :)
The Afghans used chopped celluloid film as powder and strike any where mach heads in the primer pocket to reload rounds.
tell me more
I've tried this before back in 2012 ammo shortages...and it is not safe for semi operation. The compound is too shock sensitive causing 4/10 rounds I made had slam fire out of AR and SKS. But should work fairly well with single loader shotgun and bolt action.
Keep on Keeping on, You getting there, just make sure You take all of the safety precausions ..

If you're using a boxer primed case you just stick something though the touch hole and push it out(he's using a boxer primed case)
If you're using a berdan primed case... look up on youtube how to remove it.
Berdan primed cases have two holes in the base of the case, while a boxer has one large one. The advantage of a berdan case here is that you don't need that triangular anvil because the case is the anvil.
this is gona be a very useful talent in the near future if this ammo shortage bullshit continues or guns get outlawed
This aged well
Yep...this guy right here is a damn hero.
@@lupacchinobros 😂
Oof
Under a real round with the pressures involved, will aluminum hold without a ruture? Pressurd should create a gas seal without glue, maybe nail polish to moisture proof it if the aluminun holds up. I would use the old cups again, flattening the firing pin dent would be much easier and it's steel.
My god, reloading takes long enough as is. Hell of a SHTF method though!
Look up the base components of priming compound and their history. Pressing cups is not that hard to mindlessly punch out a few hundred. Recycle your anvils or make them. Then use your highschool chemistry knowledge to make it. (Be mindful of your local laws)
A muzzleloader would be faster.
Well yes but actually no. Dude, you're not going to be doing this in the heat of a fight or hunting or practice. You do it on your off time so that you save time between shots when you actually take them. I'm thinking you aren't very experienced with guns yet. There are a lot of people like that this year and that is ok.
@@DobleWhiteAndStanley how do you make anvils?
@@SammyNeverEver They're just pieces of metal that won't budge so the primer can be crushed. The more important thing is to know how to make the primer compound.
It's very fun as well as helps you save your rounds and not shoot 50 at a time. It also stops his gun from getting too dirty. In addition to what is typed, a light load is ideal for his bullets as his springs are meant for light strikes.
0:55 : The reason you should not keep your earphones at highest volume!
Just use match heads tho and grind some of where you scratch the match head to powder and mix them , to try it that it will work put a little bit on your left thumb nail and put your right thumb nail where the powder on and scratch it quick and it’ll spark that mean it’s ready to go or beat it with hammer becareful the mix is sensitive to force.

What rifle is that mate? It's awesome
It's known as Kaboom your hands are vanished ricko
1 question how did u put that newspapers on that rifle so prefect?
Cause rifle is made of newspaper
If you save the original anvil, why not use the original cup?
I use a flat bottom punch of the right size to tap out the dent.
Pretty cool, but I have a suggestion that might make this method easier. Since this method uses recycled anvils from spent primers, why not use the anvil AND the cup from the old primer? Instead of forming a new cup from scratch, just use the old one. Use the blunt end of the drill bit to hammer out the dimple from the previous firing pin strike and you have a properly sized cup ready to go. The forming of the cup seemed like the hardest part, recycling an old cup would eliminate that step.
He is showing what he capable of 😂
Was that shot just the force of the primer or was there gun powder inside as well?
Due to its small size etc won't it be blasted out back end I know it not have no where to go but won't gases escape out back etc I don't know as I from the UK so I am not knowledgeable like you guys but hey awesome man I love the fact most things can be done with a little bit of determination and a little bit of knowledge etc
If you're making a straight walled case like a 38 special you're fine and easy.
But drawing out a brass case you need someone to machine a series of forms(that are accurate to thousandth of an inch) and get a heavy press.
You could use Paper to contain the charge, Bullet and primer like the flintlock rifles of the 1700s
maybe you have a berdan primed case,this type of case has just two small flash holes instead of just one big one,you cant deprime those without a reloading press
could you do a video on making metallic cartridges without using fired brass
Forgive me but it's very difficult to hear
Try handing sub-titles so the viewer can understand
W Harris
you fire in the aluminium?
Be sure to scrub and oil that barrel, and to be safe, the receiver too, the cap powder/material may have corrosive residue, don't wait, do immediately after the shooting session! I can smell sulphur from those popped caps, that's a warning sign!
Great video, for those doing this, just make sure to test test test until you are sure what you do works.
Is that rifle made out of news paper?
Seems more efficient just to buy the primers already made. What is time worth?
Wouldn’t it be easier just to réprime old primers?
That's a thought. Using the bit to pound the pin dent out the cup face instead. It would be the right size so you might not need glue to hold it in place.
Why not use a flat drift punch to flatten a spent primer’s cup?
If you took the anvil from an used primer, you can reuse the primer cup as well !! Just hammer flat the old firing pin indentation. This method works 3 or 4 times with a given used primer cup.
It will work more if heated to red hot and flattened then quenched or left unquenched. Heating removes the stress in the metal and so will normalizing it.
bro how did you get the 556 cartridge i need answer please?😂
Interesting but why the newspaper on the rifle?
Very cool, I am sad that my eyes no longer an srr small things like that to do it my self any more. But very cool. All that is needed now is a tool like the "tap cap" percussion cap former
Silverballer1911, you using a knife to press the compound in the primer cup? How are the getting cut?
did you make your rifle out of paper?
What did he put inside the primer other than the paper?
What kinda stock is that gun on or what is it wrapped with
do you know if a 50 bmg primer has more lead styphnate (explosive compound) that a 209 shot shell primer? i was wanting to make a mini shape charge with the primer' i do know shotshell primers are pretty powerfull and if you set it on a penny and blow it up with a blow torch the explosive will actually bend the penny" its amazingly strong for the amount of explosive compound in them" anyways hope you may know the answer' i wanna go out and buy some soon" also do you know anything about if rim fire shells carry more explosive compound than shotshell primers? i remember along time ago taking apart nail gun bullets and there was this yellow primer in it that ichave know clue what it was but there was a crap load' maybe more than the about of 4-5 shotshell primers.
Did you wrap your rifle in newspaper?
Thank you brother for the knowledge 🎉❤😊
Hi,
What is the thickness of the sheet metal you used ?
Have a nice day.
Homemade gun: Check!
Homemade bullets: Check!
Homemade primers: Check!
Now to make homemade brass!
Uhh ive been researching this stuff for a while and the easiest method i can say is only hydraulic press, the whole process is not that hard but it does require machinery that normal person wouldnt have
Depending on the type (i.e rifle, handgun, intermediate) you will be having more or less steps but basic operation of making includes these steps:
Brass sheet around 0.3 cm thick is cut in small circles
Annealing
First pressing, it now looks like small rocket
Annealing
Second pressing, now it has flat bottom
Annealing
Cutting the excess material
Annealing
Third pressing, making hole for primer (depending on whether boxer or berdan)
Annealing
Cutting circle on the bottom of a round to first remove rim (if rimless ammo is needed) and then cut another time to make rimless
And thats basically it for 9mm
If you have berdan primed cases yes because the anvil is part of the case. if you have boxer, like he has you need that anvil or there will be nothing for the primer compound to be smashed against.
Do you get many FTF loads ?
BROTHER, YOU SPRAY ALUMINIUN, O QUE VC COLOCA IN THE ALUMINIUN, PLEASE, AI BRASILIEN , BRASILEIRO. PLEASE.
good video but is this safe for real bullets wouldedt you be risking some serious blow back with the improvised cup
Why make the primer cup when you could just reclaim the spent primer cup
Amen. I've done things like this using black powder. White tip of a strike anywhere match, kids toy caps etc. I wouldn't have the guts to do this with smokeless powder. To many unknowns. Higher ignition temperature, (chance of a cook off) unknown pressures. I hope nobody gets hurt.
He did this because he has weaker hammer springs on his paper guns. They didn't set off real primers.
He has a video showing how to reclaim primer cups. However you'll get 2-3 uses max because even hammering the dent flat, each dent on the primer makes material flow away.
Nice video.thought i m new about bullet and weapon, i just curious, how he shot without gun powder in bullet.it has just a primer.but primer for what ? Without gunpowder it has no use.lol.see,i firstly told i m new
I'm not really a gun person so I don't really know a lot of stuff about guns, but what does the anvil do?
Is there a way to just use the plastic caps? I can't find paper caps locally and don't buy online.
what type of caps do you use cause the one i bought the powder is glued to the paper
where do you get the measurements for the guns you build
when i try to make a primer the drill bit will tares the metal apart any ideas to prevent that?
how would you homemade "Anvil"? If you wana try
Is that a real gun or is it make of like newspaper? I'm so confused. It looks so real but it's like paper.
Would you tell me what that tape at 3:21 is?
I want to know about that tape.
I have a question every time I try to make the cup I'm punching through the metal... And I use the same metal...
try seating the primer a bit deeper
@@joemama.556 well seating the metal I want to become the primer doesn't help, I still punch through that thing...
@@that_escalated_quickly2720 is it a conventional gun or a diy? if you have tweaked with the fcg, you might want to go back and lighten the hammer spring
@@joemama.556 im talking about fabricating the primer Lil thingy the primer pocket... The little knob filled with Armstrongs mix... I'm trying to make those little pieces, as I can't buy them...i want them for self made blanks, I never said I punched through them when I fired, but when I wanted to press them into shape to make them and fill them... I already used Heat but it didn't work...
@@that_escalated_quickly2720 oh, I understand, so you are breaking the anvils when you seat them or when you extract them?
would you trust in these to use a real load? (i mean gun power and a proyecftile)
What is the material of sheet metal? How thick?
Basically every one of these i find they use pop caps.. but if you were ever in true need to make these would you be able to even find pop caps?
sure we have recipes to make black powder if things ever went way way down hill. not every weapon would be able to use black powder but actually most straight wall casing rounds could adapt..
But it always comes back to primers.
even if you can make black powder from scratch if you run out of primers you essentially cant make a primer from scratch.
I understand we can press the fire pin out of the old primers and we can make the cups with a aluminum can which is cool.
But id like to see someone post a commonplace make-able compound to re-manufacture a primer striker with scratch materials if for example modern manufacturing ever disappears. .
Thats pretty easy, just use Armstrongs mix ie both components of strike anywhere matches ground up and combined create an impact explosive. Im not sure of the chemical names, I know one is a type of phosphorus, but theyre fairly common chemicals on their own.
How constant are they.
Homemade brass can be made out of solid bar stock on a lathe. Then it needs to be annealed and formed over a press and die(s) It's the only viable method that doesn't make use of press punches, drawing presses, etc. It would be wise to stick to a straight case caliber like 45-70 etc. with a very slight taper that can actually be machined to final shape/dimension rather than press formed and a Berdan primer pocket is ideal as they are much easier to make than the Boxer type.
Pause is ur rifle made of news paper?!?!?😂😂
could you just use the caps themselves as a primer, or would it not work as well
+Worldadventure Lehderp nope the firing pin busts through them and they would probably come off and let gas escape
Oh ok
+Worldadventure Lehderp then it won't be too reliable or just won't work at all. Still the gas can escape
Which matal to do cup primmer
The Flintstones Reloading Class......
Use a needle to get them out. One can use the old cup by straitning it out a little. I will do a program sometime in the future and show how to real primer compound from the grounds up. One can also make primer compound for .22 ammo as well.
Bhai tumne praimr ke lastme kya dala
What is the red paper called？
Hey great concept AWESOME but I can't hear a lot of what your saying
Can we reload .22?
what caliber rounds are you using? i found a spent shell (7.62) but the flash hole is split into two little holes so i cant remove the primer :(
Can i try mine out on the dog or cat? Just to test.
What the fuck
In a 38 spl ammo, I used the cap toy and flared ok, but it could not ignite the gunpowder. What went wrong?
Glauco Alex Picinini I'd need more info to understand what your doing wrong.
Ajax Ashford I follow your example, but the gunpowder not ignite.. It´s a smokeless powder, could be that?
didn't you say the exact same thing in the other video?
Smokeless powder is probably the issue. Smokeless powder is a lot harder to ignite, but it is also much more powerful. 5 grains too much and you could blow up your gun. Black powder is much more forgiving and easier to start with
Spend the 20 bucks and buy some prime all. You'll get enough compound to make hundreds of primers. Get a set of dies! Much easier to get primers in or out.
And the right size punch to fit inside the primer to remove the dent. A set of 7 cost less than 10 bucks at walmart. Much cheaper than the emergency room for stitches when the drill bit snaps.
How did you get the old/used primer out?? I tried to hammer on it from the other side so it comes off but it dosen't :/
Every primer video I watch has something "recycled" from an old primer. What is needed is a complete way to form a new cup with anvil from scratch. Good video though
Is keeping magic elves expensive?
Seriously though, if you can handcraft primers, I'll tip my hat for you.
You'll need jeweler's equipment and basically half of all the world's reserve of patience.
Come to think of it, a jeweler could probably make a few for you/teach you how to do it yourself.
@@evanharrison4054 going off of that thought, some of these primer cups and anvils remind me of those jeweler bezel settings you would stick loose, precious stones in. We used tin but I'm sure you can buy steel ones that are dozens to the dollar on amazon
I think you have come up with a great why of reloading primer s
I think if you put this primer in a case with a normal charge of powder and bullet and fire it, the primer will rupture due to back pressure. Not a good outcome.
Firing a paper gun. Salute to you. Sigma cap sus
Use toy cap gun primer?
not sure if its already been covered but could i use aluminm can metal for this or no?
What is the red paper??
Armstrong’s mixture is what they put in caps.
Don't even think of using this method. The black powder and an additional ingredient makes the cap detonate from concussion. A fully loaded rifle cartridge with a cap compound reloaded primer, is a deadly accident waiting to happen. The cap powder is so unstable, even just reloading the case could get the primer to detonate when seating a bullet. Dropping, striking, vibrations, etc.... can get the cap powder to react. If you have a death wish, yeh sure, go reload your primers. I have 40 years of reloading experience and would never do this with the primer component. Standard primers are 500% more stable than cap powder.
Ah, ok. Thanks! Btw, When you shoot the gun will the anvil stay in the shell?
yes it will its seated against the case so it wont go anywhere
I use this method for my reloads, it works ok, but everyone is out of small pistol primers...
Its 2021 and there are no small pistol primers to be found.
what was that metal sheet from? i didnt understood :P
how you take out the old primer of the cartridge
use 209 primer that primer alone is good plinking maybe killing small game very close (like 15 meters at maks) with 22 bullet
