$130 for 2000 small pistol primers?

Post by Chiro1989 »

Norma has some Argentinian manufactured primers for sale, free shipping if you buy 2000, works out to $6.50 per 100 shipped to my door, anybody used these primers before? I am a little suspicious that Norma is getting rid of them.

Seems like they only failed in the first gun and he even said it "didn't like that foreign ammo".

I'd load it for the range if it was all I could get.

Merely posting here so I can link back to this thread in a couple years when we have a more gun-friendly president in office:

Remember during the Trump administration how NOBODY was stocking up on readily available reloading components because The Great Blonde Cheetoh was in charge and we weren't going to have Obama-era shortages ever again?

Don't be a grasshopper folks.

I believe we should stand on Ceremony. . . while our friends handcuff the sanctimonious little prick and take him away.

Oh, I have primers, just checking the water on a brand I have never heard of at a price that is "OK" these days shipped to my door

Just saw CCI for $80 yesterday. Oh nevermind, that’s for 2000! That’s a good deal and Norma is good stuff.

I thought if Norma was selling them on their website, they were using them, and was suspicious as to why they were selling them, kind of curious as to why they have them in the first place and are selling them, I would guess they are not up to Norma's standards or we would not be seeing this "deal"
