Dick,

I don't know if you are aware that Samco in Fla. has closed down (if that is where you were purchasing your surplus 30 Luger ammo).....I purchased some from there and it is good range ammo. One can remove the berdan primers(with enough persistence), but I know of no source in USA for berden small pistol primers. I also have a fair amount of that brass, as I can not leave 30 Luger brass laying on the floor.
