As far as running over a primer with a vaccume cleaner, I had an experence with that this past deer season at our hunting camp. This last week at the end of the muzzel loading season in Wisc., I was vaccuming the floor of the cabin. I started to hear a rattling sound in the vaccume and then a sharp POP! I could smell the odor of burnt gun powder and shut the vaccume off. I then stood by the fire extingusher and waited for any smoke or flames to errupt. After a few moments I turned the vaccume back on and continued with the cleaning without any negative results. Some body in our camp must have unknowingly dropped a 209 primer and the vaccume found it. In thinking back, if a fire did blaze up, I don't know if I would have put it out or jumped in my truck then drove the 10 miles to get phone service and call the Insurance company. Life is all about choices.
