Description

This lot consists of a bulk quantity of Winchester Small Pistol Primers designated for standard pistol loads, marked with the WSP product code. The primers feature a brass-colored finish and are seated within a black plastic carrier tray. The external packaging is a vibrant blue cardboard sleeve featuring the iconic Winchester horse and rider logo in white, with product text in contrasting red and gold lettering. Front panel markings include Winchester, Primers, Small Pistol For Standard Pistol Loads, and the WSP identifier. The bottom edge includes hazard warnings in both English and English-Canadian French, identifying the contents as highly explosive. The verified total for this lot is 1,000 primers, typically distributed across ten 100-count trays within the master carton. These primers are manufactured for consistent ignition in a variety of small pistol calibers requiring standard (non-magnum) primers.


Condition report:

The visible primers appear to be in clean, unused condition with no signs of corrosion or greening on the brass cups. One primer in the bottom row is oriented on its side but remains within the tray. The outer cardboard sleeve shows minor shelf wear, including light creasing and small tears at the corner openings consistent with handling. The black plastic tray is intact with no visible cracks or damage to the individual primer cells.
