Very well made product, probably will purchase more in future, only gave 4 stars because I haven't actually fired them yet

I have bought 3 sets; 1 for my pietta 51 navy I haven't tried yet but the other 2 were for my uberti 1849 pocket and my uberti 51 navy London and I have never seen anything like them. my 49 pocket used to have a cap jam every other shot but now it works great.you should sell a set of 5 for the 1849s they screw in and seat fine on newer models I believe it is the older models that they don't fit on but both of mine were made in 2019 and 2020

We are aware of the differences in the 1849 models and are developing a nipple designed to fit both newer and older 1849 and 1862 revolvers. We hope to have them available around February 2021.

I ordered a two sets of nipples which are great quality they noticed i was in the same town and refunded my shipping to deliver them to me for free and when i was installing them on my revolvers my wrench broke so i ordered a new wrench and they delivered them to me on the same day also the new nipples help with the caps falling off when firing i will go to them for any blackpowder purchase first

Great!! Cap jams were a constant aggravation, and these certainly fixed that problem. On top of that I'm a veteran and look to support veteran owned businesses. Top quality product from a true patriot! Thanks!!

installed a set in my uberti 1860 army...have 100% ignition now, without any jams from caps falling into the action. I use remington #10 caps.

Got what I ordered in a decent time.
Thanks

Excellent quality with excellent results. After installing on my 1851 confederates had no cap jams or misfires. I will buy these again.

I have recently purchased several sets of nipples for my BP revolvers for upgrades to factory parts. All of your products are class A and improve the functioning of all installed.

Unfortunately I have not had a chance to use them at the range yet. What I can say is the design, fit in the cylinder, and quality of these Slixshot nipples are great.

Arrived on time the nipples for the Pietta and for the Uberti both fit perfectly! Can't wait to try them.

These nipples I purchased from you guys are so much better than the factory nipples and the caps never get bound up in the cylinder causing a jam. I use number 11 caps not number 10 caps the number 10s don't seem to fit properly as to the 1851 Colt Navy by piada but the number 11's fit perfectly nice and snug and a highly recommend this product! I actually ordered a second set of nipples as soon as I ordered my new revolver so that they both arrived at the same time. Well worth the price and save you a world of aggravation!

You are correct—CCI No. 10 caps will not fit properly, but CCI No. 11 caps will. For the best performance, we recommend using Remington No. 10 caps whenever possible.

I installed Slixshot nipples in my Uberti 1849 pocket revolver after going through numerous replacements of the standard nipples. My gun now fires at 95 percent rate (up from about 20 percent) and the caps dont fly down into the action!! Thank you for making this possible!

Yes, our standard Uberti nipples will fit the 1849 Pocket and provide acceptable performance. However, we are developing nipples specifically for the 1849 Pocket to provide an improved fit and better performance.

Perfect fit and highest quality. Nice job.

I first bought the nipples for my 1858 remington. They work so well I decided my griswold and gunnison needed some as well. I would buy from slixspring again.

Far superior to OEM nipples. Uniform flash holes and body, easily installed.

Only BP nipple to use IMO.

these are great nipples for revolvers. #10 percussion caps impossible to get so had to use #11. These were a little loose so I filed down the nipple tip a little to make a tighter fit and they worked fine after that.

We do not recommend doing this.

I have used SLIXshot nipples on all my Black Powder revolvers and have never had Cap Jams. These nillpes work flawlessly.

I've had my PIETTA 1860 Army for about 10 years. It's been fun, but never very reliable. After installing these excellent SliXshot nipples, it's been 100% reliable. I'm having more fun than ever with it, and wish I would have bought these years ago.

Great nipples. Perfect fit for 10 or 11 caps. They are excellent and well worth the low low price.

After equipping my Pietta 1860 Army with new Slixshot Nipples, Cowboy Shooting has never been so Fun! Reliability of ignition has been 100% every time. Thanks for making such a great product! 5 Stars!!

slix shot nipples are a must have for black powder shooters, no more cap jams

Perfect fit and function for my Navys

I purchased a set after being disappointed with my otherwise perfect Uberti Remington. Ignition was spotty at best. Today I installed these new nipples and after 100 35gr powder loads fired without cleaning, ignition was 100% with zero caps falling off or failures to fire! I only stopped because I ran out of caps. I have owned and carried 1911’s that were less reliable. Fantastic product. Thank you!

Hands down best quality nipples I nave used so far !!!!

I recently got involved with cap and ball shooting. Everyone, without fail, said to replace factory nipples with SliXshot. They were right.

Ignition every time, despite numerous rounds fired throughout a match.
