1.What are primers?:

According to  wikipeda  a primer  is a chemical and/or device responsible for initiating the propellant combustion that will push the projectiles out of the gun barrel. This simply means, primers is simply a very small quick buning charge encased in a a metal shell that ignites gun powder and helps in forwarding or propelling the bullet out of the gun through the barrel.

One thing about primers i will want you to know is that, primers are not part of a gun. Primers are simply part of a catridge. Meaning that, in a catridge, it is seperate but forms an integral part of a catridge.

From the above image, You clearly see that a primer is not part of a gun but is an a fundamental or important part of a catridge which is designed to cause gun powder to send or forward a bullet out of a gun.

2. What are primers made up of?:

Generally, primers generally contain 3 major parts which include one or more percussion sensitive explosives to act as initiators and ignitors, a fuel source, and one or more oxidizing compounds. Usually the fuel acts as source of flame and also helps in modifying combustion.

Copper, brass and alloy are also used to construct primers. Primers are also made up of chemicals. The image below clearly explains more.

4. Types of primers:

For you to understand the different types of primers, you must know that, primers designs and types vary for different firearms and riffles.

   Now a days, there is exist 2 different types of primers. we have the boxer primer and berdan primer.

Boxer primers usually have  a small size or bit of primary explosive inside the base. Berdan primers resembles the caps used in cap lock systems. They are simply small metal cups with sensitive explosives in them.

The main difference between boxer primer and berdan primer is that:

Here is an image of the primers:

The boxer primed cartridge is much easier to reuse after firing because of the centrally located flash hole. A decapping punch can be passed through the case mouth and through the flash hole, pushing the spent primer out of the primer pocket. This makes reloading spent cases a relatively simple process, and it’s why hand loading has caught on so well in the United States.

The berdan primed cartridge is a completely different story. It has a centrally located anvil, a small bump in the center of the primer pocket. The berdan primer won’t work without this little bump, so there can be no central flash hole, so you can’t push the spent primer out with a punch. There are two or more tiny flash holes arranged around the anvil. This makes berdan primed cases exceedingly difficult to reload, and it’s why handloading has never caught on anywhere besides the United States. It is possible to decap and reload berdan cases, but it’s a painstaking process, and it’s not really worth the effort because after only a few reloadings the soft brass anvil becomes flattened from repeated strikes from the firing pin, making ignition erratic and inconsistent.

5.The highest nation producing primers:

The manufacturing of primers is very competitive especially in highly developed countries. But presently, the highest nations producing primers are:

• United states
• Germany
• Austria
• Italy.
