Excellent website and customer service and shipping. Nipples are well made and well machined, with an intelligent design. Very satisfied and would recommend to others.

They didn’t work well in my Pedersoli 1858 Remington. Wouldn’t set off caps by Remington, CCI or RWS reliably on first strike by hammer. Revolver has a lighter than usual spring because it’s factory match tuned. Plus the fit was so tight removing them whole and in reusable shape was a challenge. I had to use a broke screw extractor on one and it broke the tool BUT it cracked free at he same time an I got it out. The point is that these work GREAT on my other guns but didn’t on this one in particular. I have 5 good ones left and will use them if the company will sell me 1 more instead of a full set. Only reason it’s. 3 star is because of this latest experience. Otherwise it would be 5.



Reply from SliXprings:

The product description lists the revolver brands our nipples are designed to fit. Pedersoli revolvers have different nipple specifications and are therefore not included in that list, which is why these nipples were not compatible with your revolver.

SlixShots are worth every penny because they solve the cap jam problem….

My pietta Remington was giving me some cap jams and adding these nipples solved it.
Also got two sets for a brace of peitta Colt 1860's. The factory nipples seemed OK in these, but I desired to have these two guns as slick and reliable as they could be.
The only downside is that i now feel the need for a set on every spare cylinder too. Great product, just get them and do not look back.

These nipples are easier to clean, and more reliable than the stock nipples. Easy to install and perform as advertised.

Very simple install. Great quality and craftsmanship.

Shot 30 consecutive rounds in my 1860 colt replica revolver without any cap jams. I am very pleased with this product. Really works as advertised.

A significant improvement over factory nipples.

I bought these for my Uberti Walker. They are awesome! I really like using #11 caps instead of #10s.

Very high quality product very happy with my purchase

They fit perfect and helped to prevent misfire.

Havent had a chance to try these yet, but have read the great reviews. Fast delivery.

great fit and fast shipping thank you so much

Truly makes cleanup easier...Just let them soak for 10-15 mins covered with "moose milk' in a small bowl and they scrub clean pretty quickly. I use a pipe cleaner on the insides and voila!...Good as new.
I will buy these for any new black powder revolver I can use them on. :)

Stainless steel nipples look and work great as advertised!

Up grade to factory Colt ones for sure. John Taffin knows his stuff.

I tried the other brand of high-end nipples, which was a let down. After buying 6 sets from Slixshot, I should have known but thought I'd try the competition. These are hands down the best in this market. Thanks Slixshot for a great product.

Better fit and performance!

Had some serious issues with the nips that came with the pistol from uberti they weren’t the right size they were neither a #10 or #11 and they would miss fire constantly. Now the slix shots I have fire every time I pull the trigger and they are for sure #11 caps which are much easier to find.
Love them

Ordered these for my son's 1851 Uberti LONDON black powdered revolver. Shipping was expedient and the product delivered was exactly what was pictured and ordered. When changed out the original nipples these exceeded my expectations and really worked as advertised. Would highly recommend these nipples and will order more in the future for another revolver.

Got a set for my 1851 Navy Colt. They work great!

I want to say the nipples are a godsend. They are great and they are very good for preventing cap jams especially for colts.

I have a Lyman 1858 Navy purchased in 1971 or 1972 (lost the receipt), and the nipples needed replaced due to wear, and the fact that they were too small for RWS1075, and #11 caps. The barrel has a Uberti logo on the barrel. I ordered the set recommended for MOST Uberti (12/28 thread), but they did not fit. I contacted Slixprings, and got a response asking me to send the set back, along with one of the originals, and Patrick would try to match it. I mailed them back, and shortly thereafter received a set that did indeed fit, and worked very well, along with my original. I can't over emphasize the high level of service provided by Slixprings, and the quality of their product.

They work great in my 1851 colt 36 caliber revolver would buy them again

Wanted to swap Pietta '51 Navy nipples to #11.... These are PERFECT!!!!
