My new stainless nipples are great, my caps fit tighter and the holes in the sides give that blow back to clear the caps away from the cylinder and the action of the pistol thanks for a great product. I have them on two of my pistols now.

I had a lot of cap jams on my 1858 New Army. These nipples ended that.

Prompt, attentive service and on-time shipping. Combine with great products makes shooting easier and more fun!

I replaced the nipples that came with my Cimarron 1861 Colt Navy. Fired 25 rounds, all cylinders fired as they should, no misfires or cap jams.

Haven't shot yet but the cap performance is amazing

Brand new Uberti 36 caliber London, and the factory nipple cones were ill-sized. CCI #10s were too tight, #11s too loose.
These nipples solved the problem. CCI #11 and Remington #10 caps fit well, don't fragment when fired, and never require a second strike to set off.

Worked great on my Ruger Old Army #11 caps fit and went bang no problem. I did not read the instructions close enough and used CCI Magnum caps on some rounds. Fragmented a little more still worked good, would not be afraid to use in a pinch

Excellent product, high quality.

Changed out 3 revolvers to these nipples. Now to find #11 caps. None to be found so far.

Very pleased with the SlixShot nipples I received. Greatly improved cap ignition and greatly reduced cap jams. Will recommend to all black powder cap and ball shooters and will gladly buy again.

Installed these nippels on my 1851 navies and my 1860 army revolvers. So far over 200 rounds without a hitch. Great product!

Since I first purchased these, I have been regularly updating all my BP pistols and rifles using #10 or #11 caps. They really help the cap to split and fall off the nipple. I have much fewer cap jams. Also makes cleanup and care of the pistol's cylinder (nipple area) easy as these are stainless steel.

I have 2 Uberti 1861 Navy revolvers. Both had cap jam issues until I got these nipples.

They work amazingly with my Remington New Model Army .44 cal Thank you very much!

easy to remove, easy to clean and they work GREAT! These new spark plugs made a major difference in my Old Army pistol

Nice improvement over stock

Great fit to my 1858 Remington. Have not had a misfire yet after switching to these nipples

These work 100% better then what came with My Pietta 1860 Army

ESPECIALLY if you have a Colts design, these nipples solve the issue of cap jams. I was in awe the first time I shot my 1860 (factory non modified gun). After firing the caps were still on the nipples and not blowed out. Some minor fitting of your action may be required, but 100% worth it. These nipples will go in ALL my cap and Ball Revolvers.

I recently got a 1861 Navy Colt reproduction by Uberti. I did my research before hand and ordered these before i received the gift but did a test with the factory nipples before switching. It made a world of difference. With the factory Nipples i couldn't make it through a whole cylinder without having to diagnose problems and dig out stuck caps with a pocket knife. With the Slixshot nipples installed i totally resolved that issue and the revolver worked as normal!

Worth the price and works splendidly!

Ordered the set for my Pietta LeMat. Set of 10 SlixShot nipples, one for each chamber and one for the shotgun central bore. And now all chambers fire 100% reliably!!!

Excellent product

I have installed SliX nipples in the five reproduction percussion .44 revolvers that I shoot most often. What a difference they these nipples have made! They have virtually eliminated cap jams and stuck caps that I must pry off with a screw driver. My review represents several hundred rounds put through each revolver before and after the SliX installation. The guns consist of a Ruger Old Army and Pietta Colt and Remington replicas. I have recommended these nipples to several friends who have enjoyed the same improvements to their shooting experience.

worked great on my 51 navy. still having trouble with caps falling in the mechanism of my 62's. think i will have to jb weld the safety notches on these two. haven't tried my 58 yet but don't foresee any problems there at all. these are nice nipples and i recommend them. their wrenches are unbeatable. by the way, Patrick is great to work with, very knowledgeable and immediate response with any questions. good company and good products.

Regrettably the nipples were the wrong thread size. You listed these nipples to fit my Remington 1861 revolver so I bought them without removing the old ones. That is also why I bought your nipple wrench. That wound up breaking but I was able remove one . The original is a.225-32. My fault for jumping the gun.
Thanks



Reply from SliXprings:

We are not familiar with a .225-32 nipple thread. The most common sizes are 12-28 SAE, M6 × 0.75 metric, and 1/4-28 SAE. You may have an older imported revolver that uses an uncommon thread size. If you are unsure of the revolver’s make or model, we strongly recommend removing one nipple and verifying its thread size before ordering. You may also send us a clear picture of the revolver and nipple, and we will be happy to help identify what you need.
