I bought some brass thats loose in the primer pockets. Would be fine in a bolt gun, but I plan to use it in a rather violent ar10.

What sealant, paint, glue etc would help
Or
Is crimped primers the only way.

I have picked up plenty of range brass with a red lacquer or something around the primers.
 
Crimp isn't going to create a gas seal around the primer if the pocket is loose.

I haven't seen any commercial primer crimping tools, only crimp removing tools.
