I like the idea of more primers.
And, always glad to hear of new industry in Texarkana, town of my birth!
great news.they will sell millions of primers
Great news!
Awesome!
I wish they would hurry up production. I can't wait to give them some of my money!
Lol, me too
I've used mostly CCI primers for years. Some Winchester, Federal, and occasionally Remington. For the entire Obama administration primers were too scarce. Things almost got back to normal under Trump. Now we're in the Biden years and primers are either ridiculously expensive or nearly unobtainable.
If these folks in Texas crank out a quality product I think I'll make them my go to for primers. They're the only ones that have showed any desire to create infrastructure to meet this need. It's been almost 14 years since we've seen fully stocked shelves. Bravo to them and godspeed!
They are supposed to go live in 2023. Wish they could speed it up!
They have some products on their website now.
Loaded ammunition (pistol calibers) only at this time.
OMG< the prices are rather disturbing.
Just an example.
1000 rounds 230 gr fmj 45acp.
$704

they're making ammo too? now we will never get primers, >:(
That is a bit steep, may as well buy Underwood?s range supply at that rate
Their prices are crazy. I've seen primer prices that are ridiculous too. Thank Biden administration.
No No That's the MAGA crowd ! You know "Make America Greedy Again" ;)
