what a great fix for the cap sucking

Great replacement for the stock nipples in my black powder Pietta. Drop in replacement and fit for the #11 caps I use

I bought some for my reproduction 1851 Colt Navy Revolvers and they are very good . I will be buying some for my other C&B revolvers soon.

Pull the stock nipples, save em and use these....

Used on a 2nd gen colt dragoon 3rd model and a pietta 1851 navy this weekend....

Over 80 rounds across both pistols, not one cap suck or jam....

These just plain ole work..!

bought a Colt Dragoon 2nd series and no caps would fit tge nipples were too large and track of the Wolf was out and everyone has been saying try slixshot so I ordered them. They say they fit cci 11s winchester11s and rws 1075 all of which I have but they barely fit. The rws wouldn't even fire without at least 2 strikes some of the winchesters the same.Pulled out a micrometer and 2 were a little larger by a couple thou.I chucked them in the drill and took them all down a little with a file and sandpaper so the winchesters and cci fit tight and the rws very tight but they all work 1st strike.I do like how they work now several hundred rds no lose caps and the slixshot really blow the caps off and in half but I wouldn't buy again as I don't want to have to work on somthing I buy and didn't want to have to send them back and wait for another set.Maybe I just got a bad set.

Great product and fast service. Excellent on my 1858 NMA.

Since I switched to these nipples I have never had a miss fire!!!

Have three sets of these nipples on my uberti's 1851,1861,and 1860 revolvers. Nice tight cap fit on the nipples and increased reliability. Reduces cap jams overall as well. Uberti's stock nipples are pretty bad, and these upgraded nipples make the guns what they should be. Thanks!

I TOOK MY BRAND NEW UBERTI STAINLESS 1858 NEW ARMY TO THE RANGE & ONLY 3 OUT OF 6 FIRES THE 1ST ATTEMPT, I INSTALLED SLIX NIPPLES & 6 OUT OF 6 FIRED ON THE 1ST TRY, WHAT A DIFFERENCE THESE NIPPLES MADE IN MY ABILITY TO RELIE THAT MY SHOTS WOULD WORK !!! SO I INSTALLED THESE NIPPLES ON ALL OF MY BP GUNS, (5 IN ALL), IT MADE ALL OM GUNS WORK PROPERLY !!! RUGER OLD ARMY, 2Xs 1858 NEW ARMY, PEPPER-BOC & MY COLT-WALKER !!!!

These are terrific. Put 50 rounds thru my 1851 Pietta Navy so far, and have not had a single cap jam.

The vented holes on the sides break each cap evenly rather than rupturing the "seal" over the nipple, so not only are my jams solved, but I noticed a considerable difference in overall compression (tighter) which led to greater accuracy with each shot.

This upgrade is definitely worth the extra money, thanks!

this stopped the cap sucking

Fast service and great product

I have had good results with the slixshots whenever I get a new revolver I order slixshots for it right away if you shoot colt revolvers install slixshots and polish any sharp edges on your hammer face and you will virtually eliminate those irritating cap jams

Both sets work well.

EXCELLENT QUALITY-STOPS CAP PROBLEMS

Now have on all of my colt “open tops”

i installed them on a 1851 Pieta Pepper Box & a 1858 Uberti New Army Rimington , i wonder if they will ignite the powder as well as the originals having a larger hole to ignite the powder ) ? Haven't tryed them out yet ,need a FPS meter to tell 4 sure !!!

I've read numerous forums on how the factory nipples for Pietta black powder revolvers create an effect called "cap suction". I went to YouTube and watched vidoes by Duelist54 and he showed how upgrading to your nipples can rectify this issue.

I have an uberti 1851 navy that kept getting cap jams. Got the slixshot nipples, and completely fixed it. Highly recommend these nipples as a first step to improving your cap n ball revolver.

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.
