I bought these nipples for my wife's 36 caliber Navy Revolver and for Her 1858 Pietta Remington Sheriffs model in 44 caliber. Folks all I can say is that the 58 Remington has been Fired more than a 150 Times and not one misfire. these Nipples Cones whatever you want to call them they are worth DOUBLE the price and they will take like 4 or 5 different caps. spend the money you will not regret it also buy yourself a nipple wrench from this company. it will not wear out or Break. as far as the 36 navy havent fired it yet. its cold in the Northwest. Best Regards Mike

They do a great job of splitting the caps as they are fired and allowing them to drop off after the cylinder is rotated.

Easiest way to make a marked improvement in the reliability of bp pistols worth every cent in my opinion we happy

These nipples are well designed, perfectly machined and hold caps. Changed the crappy ones out, put these in and no more cap jams on the 1860. Well worth having. Thanks

Good Company.

I ordered two sets of the new Slixprings nipples for my two revolvers. They were great, and solved a problem I was having. The guys at Slixprings were very helpful with questions and delivery was very fast.

They screwed right in the cylinder and the caps fit firmly. I am ahead.
I am not where I can test-fire.

This purchase was for 2 recently acquired cylinders for Ruger Old Armies. I'm acquiring a total of 12 cylinders so I can shoot a 6 stage match day without reloading cylinders. Yes, that means a total of over $400 in nipples alone, not for everyone.
I have been using nothing but Slixpring nipples since they came out. Their side vents allow lighter hammer springs. Combine that with a properly polished and tuned mechanism, and my out-of-warranty thumb was able to shoot Frontiersman again for several years. I have 8 percussion pistols with these nipples nd won't use anything else. I suggest beginning percussion pistol shooters put these on your guns before you do anything else.

Replaced the manufactured nipples on one of my 1851 Navys. Due to the difficulty in finding #10 percussion caps, especially Remington, I replaced the nipples with Slixspring nipples which hold both the #10 and #11 caps. Already tested with #11 caps and they worked great! Now have to buy another set for the other 1851 Navy!! Great product!!

These are an improvement on the nipples I had been using on my Pietta 1851 .36 caliber revolver. The prior nipples were sold by Traditions, and it would take three or more hammer strikes for the caps to detonate. With the Slixshot nipples, it now only takes 2 strikes for the caps to detonate. It is an improvement, but didn’t really fix the issue I’m experiencing. I’ll probably try to find a new hammer spring now.

Always greatly product's

All three sets of Slix shot nipples preform perfectly

Awesome product
Happy with purchase

I was using Remington no. 10 caps on my New Model Army but I kept losing them. Sometimes I would also get cap jams. After I replaced the nipples with Slixshots all these problems stopped.

Great Black power Nipples as always

I finally got to the range with these and they work fine.

work very good a lot les cap particles going down into the action i would buy slixshot nipples for all my black power pistols

These nipples were worth the money. The caps make a very nice seal and they don’t come off very easily unlike the nipples that came with my Pietta.

great item fast shipping

Highly recommend!!
All products from Slixprings are high quality well made using the best materials.

I’ve had a Uberti 1858 for over ten years now, and it was a fluke purchase because I liked the way it looked. So it sat on the shelf in a display stand for many years until one day I decided To try it out. So I got the items together and loaded up the cylinder, much to my surprise BP guns have quirks, and not every shot fired! After a few shots I was picking caps out of the stock nipples, and having a hell of a time. Off to the interwebs I went to figure out what went wrong. It didn’t take long to learn which caps and nipples to use. After receiving my order from Slixprings (extremely fast shipping by the way) I swapped them out and have had no problems since! This is a great upgrade for reliability and the stainless cleans up nicely after a fun day of plinking. If I ever get the stainless Buffalo 1858 I’ve got my eye on, this will be the first upgrade before I even load it. Thank you Slixprings for a much needed product and for being a veteran owned business. 🇺🇸

I recently put these on my Pietta 1861 Navy. They have worked well with the 4 different caps I've used. Including homemade caps. I will be buying these nipples for my 5 other bp revolvers. So far no cap jams either.

Good product good shipping

They reduce cap jams. They are well made. I ordered one wrong set and they were replaced with a minimum of inconvenience. Great service, great product.

I was disappointed in the nipples. 27 grains Goex FFFg. .454 ball. I was using CCI #11 caps. Although they produced good ignition, Every 3 of 5 shots blew the caps apart and jammed the revolver. I'm going to experiment and use some #10 caps (if I can find any).
