Yeah, did you see the boxes that you had to check?
Shipping time is 2 months
No return policy
Cancellation policy

No idea the manufacturer. HQ is Miami.
Something about stinky cheese in Denmark.
 
In the past, they have listed Genix primers. Maybe they're waiting on the same ship as those other sellers.
 
With respect-there were was one source asking for 50% down payment on Ginex primers. More than a few volume shooters rolled the dice.

Powder Valley offered the same primers.

New kid on the block ended up with import issues and all that seed money went where?

YMMV
 
yes, I sent them an email early yesterday asking then who the manufacture of the primers they are sell was.......no reply.......
 
I did call them and they said the Primer MFR was "SAV".......google turned up

To what/whom do you refer as new kid on block? North fork? Some other?
 
Domestic primers will be back. Nobody can really nail down a good when but they will be back. Right now just about all domestic primer production is going into the manufacture of loaded ammunition. Once that demand subsides primers will again become available.

Unless a businesses already in the import business of importing explosives this is not a good time for a startup company or a good time to invest in one. During January of 2020 the cost of sending a shipping container between the US and Europe was right around $7,000 and today that same container exceeds $12,000 and the backlog is weeks to months of where it was just over a year ago. Containers just take their place in line waiting on a ship. Those who wish to toss money out and hope for the best can have at it but personally I would not advise it. Additionally they say America's needs move by truck. Has anyone noticed the price of diesel fuel lately. The same fuel that gets container ships from Point A to Point B.

They (the company) has good reviews on Ammoseek.com. Paying two months in advance seems unusual for firearms components (some bullet mfgs like RMR are doing the exact same thing) but paying months in advance is the norm in some industries. Having your customers finance your inventory is sweet if you can swing it.
 
I know that U.S. made production primers will be available sooner or later but the manufacturers seem to be taking a wait and see attitude. Something extraordinary is required to break the logjam whether it is importing a large batch of foreign made primers or U.S. startups supplying primers.
 
I too are hoping CCI and the rest catch up soon, I was just talking with my LGS looking for CCI550 magnum primers and they said they haven't had a primer shipment from CCI since March of last year, 13 months seems excessive and this is a large gun shop, only the one store but a big one. They are on the CCI website and you would think CCI would have kept up with their distributors.

Bass Pro in Pearl Ms had Primers this morning. No powder. The other store We shop has had Primers coming in for the last few weeks. Powder slowly showing up there. Also plenty of Bullets and Brass.I picked up several bricks of Sp and 5 sleeves of LP today.
 
They are import primers like Ginex. They are wanting people to finance their operation like North Fork Tactical. No guarantee you will see them. I read a post indicating that they were Fort Smith selling under another site. Wasn't able to verify it though.
 
The primers Zincpoint is selling are made by Servicios y Aventuras in Argentina. Initial reviews indicate a 30% failure rate by the first customer to review them. Right now is about the time all of the customers who ordered them 2 1/2 months ago would be receiving them. I myself ordered a few to test and should receive them this week. I'll share the results.
