The video says bullet making, but it doesn't show them being made.

They're calling the loaded cartridges bullets.

My wife showed me this the other day. She is a competitive handgun shooter so; she goes through a lot of ammo. She was wondering if I could get some equipment and get to work

First thing I brought up was the possibility of losing a finger somewhere along the learning curve !

rcraig, I know, but I get a bit annoyed when I hear misnaming like that.
I think it was John Dean Cooper who corrected a lawyer by saying,

"The bullet comes out of the muzzle,
the cartridge goes into the breech.
You take great care with your apparel,
please take greater care with your speech."

Hey, it's Pakistan. They are speaking Pakistani English.

Did anyone notice the primers? They take a ball of something, place it in the primer pocket and then press in a primer cup. No anvil or anything in the primer. Just an impact sensitive explosive material.

If you want to know what bullets are, just ask anyone you meet out in the world; all ammo is called, bullets.
I do like the way they measure powder; fill the cases up and pat them down; that's it.
OSHA would shut them down in one second though. None of that is safe for the workers.

You think they care about workers.

Most 3rd world countries have a low regard for human life.

I remember a respectable British gentleman (deceased, helas) that insisted in using the word "bullet" instead of "cartridge".
By the way, he was a retired naval officer.

It’s mind boggling to think labor could be this cheap.

When I was a kid I tried to make an old enpty Bazooka rocket take off by filling it with cut off book match heads and setting it off with Jet X fuse,

No it didn't work!
