To make clean-burning, sure-fire, non-corrosive primers? Okay, that's a little more involved. But primers themselves are very old-school technology.
What are they made of, how would you make them?

I, one day,would like to undertake a project where I make a Rifle, Ammo (shells and all) from Hand. Just to see if I could do it.

Could you in theory make your own primers?

I know a couple of people who can make gun powder, do you think it would be doable to mass produce Primers?
