I spilled some primers in my driveway about a year ago.

I had set most of them up,  but found some this morning in a crack on the driveway. Are they still active?

What kind of primers?  #209 shotshell primers are often sealed enough that they are likely to be active––––not reliable enough to want to load with, however.  Other primers have less of a chance of still being good, but if dry they still might go bang if struck with a sharp blow.

Add some fuel in the crack and build a fire to dead the remaining primers.  Not gasoline.

They've been exposed to the elements for a year?, I wouldn't bother.

Throw it in the garbage.

What's the issue?


Scratch that!  Sell it on the auctions for $20!!!
