Pistol primers

Post by Cliff »

I bought several thousand pistol primers a few days ago. I've got standard large and small primers and mag. large and small primers. I've posted these on forums and want adds and no one is interested. These would have to be a face to face sale.
Everyone likes to bitch about no primers but they won't pull out the cash. Maybe I should have invested in plans on how to make a beanflip. One reply I recieved said he wouldn't sell any primers he had in this current time. So I may wind up setting on several thousand primers. These won't spoil and I won't live long enough to run out of primers.

Looky-loos, dreamers, tire kickers, time thieves, and just basic time wasters. Deal with them every day selling anything online, sooner or later the real buyer comes along. That one guy was right, keep the primers, whatever is left when you kick it just will them to a friend who reloads.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

My friend who runs our local gun & pawn shop helped me out. I'd told him I had primers and if he had anyone inquire about primers give me a call. I got a call from him and he said a man was standing at his counter with a pocket full of C notes wanting primers.
He made two trips to shop and I sold him 12,000 primers. No haggling, just $100 bills. I've still got enough primers to keep me in reloads for years. I usually don't have that kind of luck but I was due.
