I bought a used pietta 1858 remington and 3 of the nipples were out of spec. Winchester #11 caps would not fit on them. I decided to upgrade to a whole set of slix shot nipples. Now the caps are all have a very secure snug fit and won't fall off, even if the revolver is pointed straight up. Highly recommend.

Have not had a chance to shoot yet, I have been busy with Cowboy fastdrew compition

Good fit up. Have not had a cap jam since installing on my black powder pietta. Very satisfied.

They made a fantastic impression. They are not just technically well-engineered—they were crafted with love. They stand out remarkably from the factory-made versions.

Great product
Great service
Great shipping
I have 4 sets and will purchase more

These were put on a Uberti 1860 Army. Fired an N-SSA revolver match with no cap jams. Easy to clean.

I have only had the chance to use these nipples once. The Remington #10 cap fit perfectly, had no incident with caps coming off and falling into the action. I was please with the performance. But, more impressive was their customer service. The post office swore delivery but I never got them until ten days after said delivery date. Meanwhile, I was promptly sent a replacement package. Thank you Slix shot

They Worked like a charm, will be ordering some more soon

still have the nipples rub the back strap of the revolver, (Pietta)

Thank you for your feedback. Manufacturing tolerances can vary among Pietta revolvers, and a small percentage may have tighter-than-normal clearance. Please contact us so we can confirm your revolver model and determine whether our shorter nipples would provide the proper fit.

really the best you can get.

The caps don't seem to fall off these like they did with the original nipples. Refitted my second revolver and very happy with the results again.

No more cap jams and all the nipples fit tight

Slixpring nipples work much better than the stock nipples. I don't even bother shooting a new or recently purchased black powder revolver until I have replaced the nipples. Almost exclusively use 1075's for caps.

Exactly as advertised. This is the third set for different revolver. (62 navy colt, 49 pocket). Same great quality and fast shipping.

I can't say enough good things about slixshot nipples! Great product! Best upgrade ever. They shipped quickly and were a perfect fit. Much more dependable than the factory nipples. I will definately be a repeat customer. Highly recommend!

These are exactly as advertised. A little pricey, but what isnt these days. Quick ship, good quality. All good.

great

A great product, I have them installed on all of my percussion revolvers. They function great and basically eliminate cap jams.

I bought the Slixshot nipples for my Pietta 1851 Navy. They worked fantastically with CCI #11 caps. An absolute necessity for the repro revolvers.

First thing I do with a new Cap&Ball revolver before every going to the range is order a set of Slixshot nipples.

This are well made too bad they didn’t fit my Lyman 1851 pistol

Fit and finish are great. Consistent and reliable. What more can ya ask!?

Great product very happy!

i have Slix in six guns, they perform very well, as advertised. Caps go on all the way and stay in place until fired. i have two more revolvers that will be getting Slix in the future.

I have Slix Shot nipples on all 6 of my 1860 "Colt Clones," 2 Pietta, and 4 Uberti's. Cap jams are a thing of the past. Very pleased, both with the product and service. John B. Brus
