A cartridge priming device having a cartridge receiver for holding a cartridge to have a primer inserted therein, a primer receiving station for holding a single primer for insertion into a cartridge, a primer reservoir operable to hold a plurality of primers, a passage for directing primers from the reservoir to the primer receiving station, and a safety shield (80) shiftable between a first position, allowing primers to pass from the passage into the primer receiving station, and a second position in which the safety shield (80) isolates the primer receiving station from the primer passage to shield following primers from a primer in the primer receiving station. The tool may be a hand-held and operated tool having a swingable handle, with the shield (80) being an arcuate plate member connected to and movable with the operator handle (14) between its first and second positions. |
