Just got forced to sit through 12 hours of HAZMAT training last month...

... ouch.

Anyway, pistol primers are definitely HAZMAT; they were an example we looked at in one of the class sessions.

Not having a 49 CFR in front of me, or an IATA (International Air Transport Association) guideline in front of me, all I can tell you is that primers should fall under class 1.3 or 1.4, IE Class 1 Explosive Subsection 3 (minor blast or projection hazard) or Subsection 4 (no significant hazard).

But you could look up those classes and references online, if you wish.

In any case, it may well be easiest for you to ship via licensed HAZMAT shippers.
