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.
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.
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
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)
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.
@@albertforletta1498 & @ jizzmonkey 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.
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.
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)
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.
@@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.
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
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 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.
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
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.
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 👍👌
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!
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.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.

looks like your homemade primer got pierced during the test fire, would be interesting to see a fully reloaded round fired

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

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

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
