White River Small Pistol Primers

[Tall John]

Has anyone tried the White River Small pistol primers?  Made in Arkansas?  If so, are they hard/soft?

 

Republic Ammunition has them on sale for $60/1000 and their hazmat is only $14.95

Thanks eysa!  Not much info there.  I guess if they work in 14 firearms that Buckshot Bob owns then maybe they are worth trying.

Ha sorry TJ, I just remembered seeing a previous thread and found it. Didn't bother to read it.

Just read it!

They don’t show on that link anymore. Shooter’s World, for whom I am a distributor, is the exclusive distributor for White River.  I have some to test and will let you know. At present, I have been told that their retail primers for 2024 are sold and that they are selling currently only to OEM ammunition manufacturers - which may be why they showed 24 hours ago and not now. They are a legitimate company located in Arkansas. They are owned by an American Holding company with Czech Republic ties - hence the SW connection since SW powders are manufactured in Czech Republic. 
 

Hugs!

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer

Well I ordered 500 to test.  It’ll be interesting to see if they ship my order
