Howdy folks, Two Feathers here:
I have an item that’s different, for me. I’ve never made one of these, so I figured why not? It’s an Elk antler pan primer. The price is $45.00 USD$’s shipped to your door in a padded envelope to anywhere in the actual 50 United States. I cannot ship this item to Canada, due to wildlife conservation laws.
90% of the inside is hollow. Filling will require some kind of a funnel. You fill it through the removable valve. Just unscrew and remove the push valve, the threaded insert stays permanently in the antler, it WILL not come out! Be careful not to lose the little spring, then fill through the insert, screw the valve and spring back in and you’re ready to prime your pan. I have no way of knowing for certain (I have no 4 FFFFg powder here), but my best guess is, it will hold enough powder for about 30-40 shots? Each “push” of the valve into the flash pan will dispense 3 grains of FFFFg powder. DO NOT attempt to use powder larger than FFFFg! That will jam in the valve. It was NOT designed to dispense powder larger than FFFFg.
The base is Curly Maple. It has been treated with Aqua Fortis and Linseed oil to bring out the grain and the beauty of the wood. I painstakingly tacked in the wooden plug with 14 very tiny solid Brass nails. The short tine has been drilled through for a carry thong. The antler has been “Cleaned” but left natural for a rustic look. I did polish it just a bit.
The best measurements I can give you are 5” long (end of valve to bottom of wood, by 3” wide at the widest point across to “Y.” These are close, just in case you needed to know for fitting inside your bag, if you decide to carry it there?
This will fit right in at your next hunt; Rendezvous, or shoot?
I cannot ship/sell this item to Canada! All prices are in USD$ to the 50 United states. I prefer PayPal; but I also accept postal and bank money orders. MO’s will add 1 week for travel time. I ship same day as funds are received, the exceptions are Federal holidays, Sundays, PO hours, and severe weather.
If interested PM me here. As always, thanks for looking.
God bless:
