Hello, I am looking for advice on removing primers from 105mm canisters and effectively cleaning the interiors. Does anyone know how to?

Good luck in your endeavor, I did find online if it will help, 105mm Tank primers are screw fit, and what George has said is correct. We use an air impact tool to unscrew them.
