Does anybody know a source for Berdan primers in this country? Even the Old Western Scrounger doesn't seem to have them any more.:banghead:

Probably Huntington's. I don't have the website, but you can probably find them with a search.
Hope this helps.

Nice site, but it still doesn't give many many places to look.

What caliber do you need them for? I've got some in 2 diffrent sizes, I'll have to check on where dad got them.

Its for a 7.62 Nagant. I believe the primer is a 5mm (At least I'm measuring about 4.95 across the pocket).

The two cases of primers on the top are wolf, the two on the bottom are PMC berdan large rifle 217 dia. I think they are made or dist. from the same place in Russia. I contacted wolf a couple months ago and got no where with them. If they don't become avalible soon all the berdan brass will get scraped. Maybe some one has connections with a large enough supplier to get something going.
Berdan Primers
I have a few hundred I would give away, if someone could figure out how to get them. Which is a BIG problem. I'm in Juneau, Alaska, and it is virtually impossible to ship them.
Not sure how many or what type. They're all in original packaging. In fact, they are quite old and may be corrosive. I'll have to look to see how many there are and what type. My dad passed them along to me years ago, and I have no use for them. I've been thinking of destroying them, just to get them out of the house. The hazardous waste facility wouldn't take them.

Except I'm looking for pistol primers, and PMC quit importing them to the US. Yeah somebody probably has what I need in private stock, the only problem is finding them in the size I need, and finding somebody that will part with some.

I'll keep an eye open for them since I'am always looking for berdan primers anyways. What caliber are you loading and what type of primer do you need, large or small.
