This is the first that I have heard of this, if true.

Sounds good. hopefully they let more go in 2024 could be running low by then!!

The importer here in Australia has announced there will be no Federal or CCI primers for 5 years….
Lucky I just had all of my firearms removed from me, cuz I only got 3000 primers total and not a single pistol primer to be seen anywhere.
I'm done with rifles for the next 5 years….do not marry a nutter, that's all I will say.
Hope your shooting is productive, I will be hunting with a bow and a crossbow from now on.
Cheers.

its all good I've got right around 60 + thousand rifle primers 25 thousand 209 & 26-27 thousand pistol primers between fed & cci

We'll have to start up our own official LRH primer company then…I have no money for capital investment nor the know how to safely mass produce explosives, this stupid idea is all I got haha.

Or we'll have to invent a "smokeless flintlock" that "don't need no primer"!

I hope it's not some rich anti-gunner that buys up ammo and supply companies just to shut them down.

Probably because of this kind of thing

I don`t blame people for being well supplied... I`m well supplied too by todays standard. I didn`t buy large amounts of primers, bullets, or powder when it was available, I have been buying a little here, and a little there for years. If I see a component I use I buy it and put it away. Sure glad I did in these times of need. I am not a hoarder by any means, I love to hunt and shoot, and have put together a small supply to get me by. my .02

could be but at least I'm not worried about vista outdoors not making primers for the general public like a lot of people are.
I've also got about 250lbs of powder so i don't have to worry about hogdon or alliant suddenly deciding they are not going to
sell powder to the general public

 

[DENRIK89]

No new orders. Hodgdon did the same thing at the end of last year to catch up on some of the backlog.

Aaaand behavior such as this make shortages a lot worse, longer lasting and more expensive unfortunately.
vvvvvv Sorry not sorry
