A Game Changer
Ron Houseman - 02/11/2025
I shot 200 rounds total out of 4 different Colt Revolvers last week. Each revolver had Slix nipples installed and I had one cap jam for the 200 rounds. That’s what I call a game changer!
The best
JC in KY - 02/10/2025
I installed these on an Uberti 1858 carbine. The factory nipples wouldn't fit a Rem#10 cap, and the CCI#11's would fall off with recoil (dangerous!)

My go-to replacements are Slix. These are beautiful and turned my 1858 into a real shooter. They also helped reduce the cap splash that the revolving carbines are known for. Do yourself a favor an get a Slix nipple wrench as well.

Patrick is the best. Buy your stuff from him!

Excellent as always
My 7th set
Jerry w - 02/05/2025
Absolutely love these . I have them on almost all my pistols now, I will definitely be buying more. Far better than any factory cones/nipples that I’ve used . If you're on the fence about trying them .. just do it . You’ll be happy you did
No cap jam nipples
Wayne Young - 02/04/2025
These nipples make shooting a lot more fun without cap jams! They are quality made.
Perfect for my Uberti 1860 Army
Mark Wilkinson - 02/04/2025
These nipples are perfect for my Uberti 1860 Army. Consistent cap splits, and no cap jams yet. I also like that the shoulders are a little taller than the stock Uberti's, making assembly and dissembly easier. And the fact that they are hardened stainless steel, which are more durable, and corrosion resistant than the stock nipples. The caps for better too. Well worth the money.
Great improvement
Raymond Hamilton Jones Jr. - 02/02/2025
Worked very well. I would suggest these to anybody.
Look great.
George F Norwood - 01/29/2025
I have not shot the gun yet with them but they appear to be high quality.
Flawless
SD Dave - 01/29/2025
Easy installation. Holds percussion caps without fail. Every chamber ignited without any problems. No misfires. No fallen caps. Ignition every single shot. Replacing all my cylinders with SlXshot nipples.

A must have for Italian reproductions.

Larger wrench flats. Nicer cap fit. No cap suck.
Great Nipples
Dennis DeMarco - 01/26/2025
Finally got around to changing out the stock nipples on my 1851.
Only fired a few cylinder full, but no cap jams!
Highly recommended!!
