- 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.

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.
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
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.
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)
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?
The Afghans used chopped celluloid film as powder and strike any where mach heads in the primer pocket to reload rounds.
tell me more
Best primer video I could find. Thanks for showing us how. I feel totally less stressed about running out of primers now.

Great idea bloke,if theres no primers at all we improvise and this is how its done. Ive seen this method with matches and striker and works just a well but your ingredients are more stable and safer to work with. Good stuff 👍👌
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
@@DobleWhiteAndStabley 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.
Great video, for those doing this, just make sure to test test test until you are sure what you do works.
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.

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!
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.
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

Now to make homemade brass!
can any of you learn the basics of what he is trying to show you?
paper gun or no.
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,
I’ll give you $28.89. Go buy 1,000 primers. It’s faster, and easier. Lol. Cheers.

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 :)
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.

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.
Since you have used primers, try pulling the anvil out, using the drill-bit to tap out the firing pin mark in the orig cup, and do the same, just reload the primers...
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
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
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.

Hey great concept AWESOME but I can't hear a lot of what your saying
Thank you brother for the knowledge 🎉❤😊
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.
I think you have come up with a great why of reloading primer s

use 209 primer that primer alone is good plinking maybe killing small game very close (like 15 meters at maks) with 22 bullet
*Tacome in a war
Shit were out of bullets
*tacome:give me a piece on metal and some paper
That’s an impressive paper rifle.
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. Thanks.
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.
could you do a video on making metallic cartridges without using fired brass
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.
Pause is ur rifle made of news paper?!?!?😂😂
its a bit late but u can shoot wax bullets with the paper rifling
Be careful not to kill us once🙄
Armstrong’s mixture is what they put in caps.
I bet it's fun when the roll cap goes off while cutting it
excellent use of easy to get materials...reloading process can definitely be made quicker though
Forgive me but it's very difficult to hear
Try handing sub-titles so the viewer can understand
W Harris
Subtitles are there
the falling hammer squeezes the primer to the anvil
Wow... good experiment... good job...
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.
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.
Why not use a flat drift punch to flatten a spent primer’s cup?
I love the paper rifle.
The easiest way to make your own primers is by saving Berdan primed ammunition as it is easier to press the cup primers and then fill them with primer material made out of paper strip toy gun charges.
Nice rifle, stan!
Awesome...ammo vids are always the best, I hope you'll attempt an actual necked cartridge case sometime: {maybe a segmented flower design with the 'petals' raised vertically from the circular base to properly form the difficult/problematic neck and shoulder area-straight wall much easier by far}....liked your simple primer body forming method, same principle as freechex(tm) or CheckMaker(tm) die combos for DIY gas checks.
BROTHER, YOU SPRAY ALUMINIUN, O QUE VC COLOCA IN THE ALUMINIUN, PLEASE, AI BRASILIEN , BRASILEIRO. PLEASE.
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
Well after a lot of thought i will be re-using my spent .308 large rifle primers instead of using aluminium can sheet metal,its too thin to use safley for primer cups. I cant get any of those paper caps for cap guns so i will use a mixture of shellac and acetone to hold the primer compound into the primer cup. I will be reducing my powder charge for this experimental replacement primer to be on the safe side.
1 question how did u put that newspapers on that rifle so prefect?
Cause rifle is made of newspaper
Just kidding Tacome is a UA-cam legend
It's not the same, but since tacome only needs the casings then both would work, I think.
Your metal is too thin or too brittle. You may have to anneal your material before attempting to from the cup.
Hit the sheet with a blowtorch for a few seconds, let cool then proceed as normal. If it still doesn't work get a thicker sheet. Don't burn your house down.
That goes both ways. Explain why people like doing the "first" thing so hard.
The fact is that it's probably more noteworthy to be the first making a meaningful comment, not the guy who refreshes his youtube feed every second.
And somehow he will construct a tank.
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.
i used metal from a can and i think i used some other metal too but i will try to anneal it and try it again
when i try to make a primer the drill bit will tares the metal apart any ideas to prevent that?
@mopja100 its really easy im 13 and i do this i just finished my kriss vector. out of paper with interchanble rounds and bolts plus mags. if you want to learn how to make it step by step im doing a tutorial soon.
when
where do you get the measurements for the guns you build
He has videos showing how it's made. He uses copper tubes, check out his primer instructional videos.
What rifle is that mate? It's awesome
It's known as Kaboom your hands are vanished ricko
What did he put inside the primer other than the paper?
well I am sure that your 7 subs that probably don't even remember you unless you know them personally and don't follow your feed will help Tacome a whole lot to grow his channel.
The amount of times you dropped the bullet and made loud unecessary noise
Since you are saving the anvil from a spent primer, why not use the cup too? Just get a flat punch and flatten the face of the old primer. You now have the case and anvil. Just add powder.
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.
Was that shot just the force of the primer or was there gun powder inside as well?
would you trust in these to use a real load? (i mean gun power and a proyecftile)
Perfect work.
considering his paper guns shoot and use real brass, it wouldn't be a leap that these primers would work on a real weapon.
Seems more efficient just to buy the primers already made. What is time worth?
what type of caps do you use cause the one i bought the powder is glued to the paper
Are my eyes screwing with me or did I just see a paper mache gun fire a primer?
good video but is this safe for real bullets wouldedt you be risking some serious blow back with the improvised cup
you fire in the aluminium?
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.
You could, the anvil needs to be hard enough to not bend during the impact of the firing pin or it will not crush the primer compound.
Hardening is a pretty easy, but it does take a little bit of precision to get it right. Too hard and it might shatter, too soft and it might bend. Both lead to failure to ignite.
As far as forming it, drill a hole in a piece of steel slightly smaller than your cup, use it to form, then use a dremel to cut slots.
Don't hammer a primed cup, they go boom.
He doesn't do that because the original primer cup is very strong and the hammer /striker spring in his guns are too weak to dent them. a double safety so real ball ammo can't be fired and blow him up and a criminal can't fire it.
It means 'thanks' in that context.
