A buddy of mine who loads his own smokeless cartridges was cleaning his loading bench and gave me several thousand spent large pistol primers. I had the crazy idea to recycle these for use in cb revolvers. I removed the anvil with some Harbor Freight dental picks; hammered the firing pin indentation out to get a flat surface; used a 1/8" paper punch to punch out toy roll caps; put a couple caps in the primer cup; placed the primer on the nipple;cock and fire...BANG! As always your mileage may vary.
There is a youtube vid where a fellow does this to reload his primers to reuse in his smokeless powder guns. He replaces the anvil from that same spent primer..
