Superb quality nipples, enhanced the function and value of my revolver. Hope to order more soon!

As always theses are the best nipples I have ever used. I own 4 Uberti revolvers and now all are equiped with Slix-Shot nipples.
Highly recomended and also great customer service !

They work great with the CCI #11. No misfires so far. Great product!!!

Great product. Highly recommend.

Every time I buy a new Black Powder Revolver the very first thing I do is replace the nipples with a set of your fine stainless steel nipples

I get ignition every time now. Also, my actions are no longer ‘eating’ percussion caps.
It’s also worth mentioning that both shipping and tech support are prompt. An outstanding company to do business with!

What a difference in the performance of my Uberti 1860. These nipples make shooting cap and ball much more enjoyable. Thank you for a great product!

Just used the Slixshot Black Powder Nipples on my 1851 Navy 44 cal with brass frame. Not one jammed cap. easy to install and clean after use. Great improvement from the original set. thanks. So much less frustrating to use.

I have recently purchased a set of the Slixsprings stainless percussion nipples for my 1860 Colt Army and my 1860 colt snubby, and what a difference they have made! Surfire ignition, a huge reduction in cap jams and increased reliability from my weapons, not to mention just all around better quality than the factory originals! I have just picked up a Colt Dragoon, so you can bet i will be placing another order very soon for a set of Slixsprings nipples for this revolver as well! I cannot stress how important it is to make this purchase and put a set of these into your revolver.......they have changed my weapons from fun guns with "hit and miss" reliability into weapons i would not be afraid to use to defend myself if need be......give them a try, bet you wont be disappointed!

Works great plan to buy more

Best upgrade for the money

I rated these nipples a 5 because no higher rating was available. The difference in the Slixshot nipples and factory nipples are unbelievable. No cap jams. No misfires. No hangups. I now replace nipples on a new gun before firing the first shot. Pietta and Uberti should just place these nipples on their guns straight from the factory. They are that good and more!

Bought this because finding #10 caps just wasn't happening at the time they work great with #11 caps I couldn't be more pleased with this product

A piece of flash still get wedged behind the barrel causing the mechanism to bind but it is a definite improvement overstock.
It blows a hole in the back of my homemmade soda can caps but I've been considering double thickness anyway.

These slixshot nipples work great on my pietta Remington New Model Army. Number 10 Remington caps fit them perfectly and so do number 11 caps I make with my tap-o-cap punch set. I’m planning on getting a set for my uberti Colt 1st Model Dragoon.

Cones installed fine and work perfectly

I really love these cones. They're a great 'helper' to prevent cap jams. Though slightly higher on a 1851 Colt by Pietta, they work as intended. Great product! Will buy them again with my next BP purchase.

top notch nipples here i put them all on my guns you guys really know what you are doing thanks

I recently purchased a set of black powder nipples for a Uberti 1847 walker and when I received them the threads on one of the nipples was marred up where it wouldn't thread into the cylinder. Had to take to a gun smith to correct the issues before threading into the cylinder. Less than pleased with this purchase.

We’re sorry that one of the nipples had a defective thread. Although this is extremely rare among the more than two million nipples we have produced, we stand behind our products and would have gladly sent you a replacement if you had contacted us. We hope you will give us the opportunity to make this right and that the remaining nipples provide the improved performance they were designed to deliver.

Being new to black powder I needed a nipple wrench.The Slix wrench got great reviews so I ordered one and it works great on my factory nipples.Decided to order new nipples and was very happy with the improvement over the factory ones.I had a small issue with one nipple and sent a message about it and the company responded right away with some helpful advice.I could not resolve the problem, told them and they sent me a replacement with out me even asking. The new one came and now I have six great SS nipples that work way better then any factory ones.Thank you for displaying proactive customer service! A rare thing indeed now days.

These worked well with CCI #11's and RWS 1075's no more loose caps and cap jams are rare now.

Could not expect anymore from them, thanks.

Just ordered a Wrench and another set of nipples for another revolver with the same type of problems mentioned above.

These are great nipples, I have them on four revolvers. They are reliable and I think they resist fouling better than the stock or even treso nipples.

I bought these on the recommendation of someone and they are much better that the nipples that came with my 1858 Remington from Pietta. I still cannot get #11 caps to work well with them but I believe I need a better way to crimp them on to the nipples. The ignition is better with them as well.

Keep in mind that Remington No. 11 caps are not recommended because they are too short and may not remain securely seated on the nipple. CCI No. 11 caps generally work well, although some older production batches may present fit or performance issues.

Original nipples wouldnt hold the caps. These have solved that issue!

These are matched in quality, fit perfectly and function.
