Where do I post to trade primers?

I am new here.

Is there a buy/sell/trade forum?

Thank you.

I would think you'd post it under "Buy, Sell and Trade: Holsters, Gear and Accessories"

New rules have recently taken effect though. Got to spend some QT on TFL before you can post in the Buy, Sell, Trade forums.

Read all about it here...

Welcome to TFL, BTW.

OK, found it. But now I have a new problem...


"rw1, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation."


So how do I get this fixed?

Don't bother. You can't ship primers, or mail them, without paying a hazmat fee. Hazmat is short for hazardous material. Shippers of hazmat like primers and powder have special permits that cost a lot of money and are not easy to get. So "trading" primers is out of the question, UNLESS you find someone who has such a permit, AND then pay $20.00 per package to ship it.

True, but the OP could simply be looking for "Face to Face" trades.

You'll have to get some POSTS under your belt before you get too crazy with the buy/sell/trade areas, due to the new rules.
Welcome to the forum and have fun posting

staff.. please correct me if I am wrong but I believe that if it is reloading related you can post it here.

You need to post at least what state your in and a meet and trade would be the best with primers.

It's the only way with primers. Even if the trade is for cash.

Yes. Our mod, Johnny Guest has said that as long as it is reloading equipment or accessories (bullets, brass, powder, etc.), sells & trades can be posted in this forum.
