Very well made works GREAT!

I have had these for a little over a month, didn't want to write the review until I'd tried both sets (one each for Uberti and Pietta) out.
I can say these are fantastic products and I'll surely be ordering more.

I can't complain about your product, even being almost 36 bucks each set, (July 2021) they're well worth while.

The Slixshot nipples worked well splitting when fired makes for easy removal. The only adjustment was having to grind roughly .010" off of the length to allow the cyclinder to turn freely.

Slick shot nipples are as good and dependable as the hot shots I used to use.

The hardest and strongest nipples I have ever used. Highly recommended !

I was experiencing constant misfires in 2 chambers of my Ruger Old Army cylinder, the cap would go off, but the powder charge would not ignite. I did some research, and found positive results from other shooters switching to SlixSprings. I swapped them out, then fired 6 consecutive cylinders (36 shots) without a problem. Definitely increased reliability, highly recommended.

The nipples I ordered for my pair of 1851 and 1860 army piettas are well made and screwed right in. The problem is all the nipples are a hair too long and upon firing the hammer can't travel far enough forward to reset the lock so when you try to cook the hammer again it locks up the revolver.

Reply from Slixprings:

A simple phone call to us would have resolved this problem. It’s not that the cones are too tall in the cylinder. They fit 99% of the revolvers out there and provide a dramatic improvement in ignition reliability without any modification. The issue is that your revolver has way too tight of tolerance between the cylinder and the barrel. Simply remove the barrel and file off material on the forcing cone until you achieve a barrel/cylinder gap of .012” to .018” or until you can cycle the gun without it locking up. If we shortened the cone height then the majority of our nipples would be no better than the stock ones which have failure to fire problems. Not all BP revolvers adhere to the same tolerances. Tuning the guns is always a good idea anyway. Also keep in mind that the deeper the wedge is inserted the tighter the cylinder/barrel gap becomes. Another option would be to take it to a competent black powder gunsmith and have it tuned properly.

Great product. Fits my revolver perfectly. Gary

This is High quality product. Works very well no issues since I’ve installed them in my colt revolver. I highly recommend this for any of my fellow black powder shooters

A repeat customer that has never been disappointed.

Really great product even has a blow back hole to keep from cap jams.

Great upgrade for your cap-n-ball revolver. Will be ordering another set when I get my next percussion pistol.

Best black powder product that was ever produced

No BP gun should be without SliXshot nipples, period.

I love the nipple upgrade for my Pietta 1860 Army. I have no trouble whatsoever keeping both store bought and homemade percussion caps in place. I'm so pleased with the product that I just ordered another set for my additional cylinder. Great product. Thanks.

absolutely FANTASTIC...

Fit perfect and no miss fires, thank you

To start with, I ordered the wrong nipples. I contacted them, sent them back and they sent the correct ones. They made my goof up easily fixed. The quality of the nipples and the outstanding customer support have made me a lifetime customer.

I bought slixshot nipples for my 1860 Army Pietta and also my Remington 1858 Pietta and they do exactly as advertized. Would recommend these to anyone. Thanks, R Davis

They work great. They work like they should every time.

High Quality product..That does what is is supposed to do

They work great on my pietta 1851 navy!

I shoot 3 different Pietta .36 Navies and had always used Rem #10 caps. Figure CCI flavor will be more common in the future so time to adapt. I can use Rem #10, CCI #11, and RWS1075 successfully on SliXshot replacement nipples without pinching or other such messing around. Have not tried Winchester brand yet. CCI #10 don't fit.

these nipples fit an Uberti 1851 navy .36 cal perfectly. they held the caps (CCI 11 and REM 11) snug and so far I haven't had one drop into the action. they usually start peeling out or falling by the time they are 2/3 to 3/4 around.

Perfect upgrade. Excellent product quality. It arrived quickly. I am very pleased with my purchase.
