Hand Built Quality
We pride ourselves on our high quality, hand-built Ceremonial Saluting Cartridges and 12 Gauge Blanks, which we provide to customers all around the world. Our cartridges are produced for a variety of ceremonial artillery guns and cannons, from 3Pdr to 25Pdr, 40mm to 105mm. Primetake is able to customise, adapt, and develop saluting blanks for specific user requirements. Products are built to the highest ISO 9001 quality standards to ensure safety and reliability.
Ceremonial, Film, & Theatre
Alongside ceremonial occasions, our blank ammunition has been used in re-enactments and in theatrical performances. They have been used for alarm mines, as trespass deterrents, in training exercises, as tripwire blanks, and even as polar bear scares. The cartridges emulate the sound and effect of regular 12 gauge ammunition, without the projectile.
Tailor Made Cartridges
As blank cartridge manufacturers, with an extremely capable Research and Development Team, Primetake is equipped to design and produce blank rounds for a range of purposes to suit any customer needs and specificities. Our saluting cartridges and 12 gauge blanks can be tailor made and adapted to work with a broad range of guns and cannons. Get in touch with a member of our team to discuss your requirements.
