These are the greatest for my Remington
A+

I was somewhat pleased until one of them broke off at the threads in my walker cylinder. That would it up for me. I took the rest out and threw them in the trash, then put factories back in. I won't try any more oranything else. It's a shame. I was impressed with the service which is well above average for this day and time

We’re sorry to hear that the part broke. This is very rare, but it would have been covered under our warranty. If you had contacted us, we would have gladly sent you a replacement and made it right.

I've played with black powder guns for 50 years and the Slixprings stainless nipples for my Confederate collection of single action reproduction revolvers are simply second to none. I could not be happier with Slixsprings stainless nipples.

Lightning-fast service.
Bought two more sets of Peitta nipples for my spare 1860 cylinders, and received them in three days.
Ive got slixshots on nearly all of my growing arsenal of C+B wheelguns, and thought the factory nipples are often pretty good, these are excellent and often turn a gun from an amusing toy that's fun to shoot between cap jams to a machine that properly spits lead and smoke, and is nearly cartridge gun reliable.

I have these on 3 of my 4 BP revolvers and can't say enough good things about them. They definitely help with the cap sucking.

All of my ML pistols have SliXshot nipples on them. Replacing the factory nipples is part of the process of cleaning and otherwise getting a new pistol ready to shoot. They make for quick, clean firing, blow the blasted cap off the nipple at the time of ignition, and greatly reduce the chance of a cap jam.

I became involved with these nipples when they first came out. The developers explained that the tiny 90-degree holes in the sides were to minimize back pressure. One of the reasons for heavy hammer springs is to keep the hammer from opening up and allowing the caps to come off the nipple and lock up the action. These cured it. Immediately I could use lighter hammer springs, I had several springs and inserted the lightest, then heavier, etc. until it worked. Since I was using a worn out, out of warranty thumb this extended my ability to shoot Frontiersman by years

FJB!

Your black powder nipples are the gold standard.
Also, your nipple wrench makes all others look like junk. As a mechanic friend once said, the competition must be made of "cheese" the way they fail.
Thanks!

I have yet to live fire my Uberti 1851 Navy, but the fit of the nipples is perfect and pair well with the CCI 11 caps. Cylinder moves freely with the caps in place. The original nipples would bind the Cylinder with the caps.

I have two sets so far and will order more later

I have purchased a set for each of my two 1851 Navy 44 revolvers. I’m able to shoot with no cap problems or jams. I’m very impressed with the performance of these nipples. My #11 CCI grip the nipples perfectly.

Ordered nipples listed to fit Euroarms revolvers. Nipples nicely machined, and correct thread but too long for either my 1971 or 1974 mfg navy revolvers. Package marked for Pietta revolvers. Maybe my next acquisition will be a Pietta so I can give the nipples a fair test.

Please return the nipples, and we will gladly exchange them for the correct ones. Your older model likely requires a shorter nipple, which we have available.

The first nipples sent did not fit my revolver. However I was able to return them along with one of the old nipples and they found the correct match and shipped back to me. Great service.

I am very satisfied with these BP nipples with very limited use so far. My option on them may change (either way) when I’ve had the opportunity to use them more .

a very good and excellent product

I have been using these for years. They are top quality and are the only nipples I use in my BP revolvers. Stock up and enjoy shooting.

Wonderful product! Work like a charm. No cap jams at all and at a fair price!

I use these on all my BP revolvers. #11 and 1075 caps seat very well and the stainless nipples are very easy to clean up.

Wonderful

Purchased these for all of our BP single action pistols. Will not use anything else.

Great performance. Holds my CCI #11 caps strong. Perfect shooting with these. I’m ordering another for my new 1851 Navy also.

Workmanship is fantastic and fit is stupendous! Highly recommend them.

Works as advertised, just what my 1860 Colt replica needed.
