Yay! More Primers, and more jobs heading to East Texas.

[Srgt. Hulka]

Here's something that should make shooting enthusiasts and job hunters happy: A huge ammunition company is dropping an enormous chunk of money down to put a pretty sizable manufacturing facility in East Texas! That means more jobs and more plentiful ammo!

According to Thomas Net, a former ammunition plant used by Uncle Sam will be retooled and updated so that it can serve as the new primer plant for Expansion Ammunition. Reportedly, the company is laying out $100 million to transform the old Lone Star Army Ammunition Plant in Hooks, Texas into a state-of-the-art facility.

except it's an ammo plant not necessarily going to make primers and if they do not really for you but there ammo if they do , but it's always nice to see gun related businesses opening up rather than shutting down .

I hope they make it happen. Need more of these types of businesses in Texas opening up and less Facebook/Apple types.

I understand that they do intend to sell primers— small rifle and small pistol first.
