I've just recently purchased the SliX hand so I haven't used it much yet. It is well made and fits nicely on my Sheriff's model 1858 New Army. I think it will go a long way toward making life easier.

Just got one for my '49 pocket revolver.. great idea for the small cap&balls.. works great.

I'm a 75 year old revolver shooter. The slix hand tool makes loading my black powder revolvers much easier for me. Thanks for a wonderful product !!

I put off getting a slixhand for a long time but glad I finally did! It really does make loading effortless for something the size of a sharpy that fits in your pocket. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Six hand really made loading my short barreled black powder pistols easier!

This is the best tool for cap & ball revolvers ever made. So wish I would of had this 40 years ago when I 1st started. Great job folks. Keep making great products and I will keep buying them. Thank you.

A must have for any pocket revolver!

This tool is a must have if you own a pocket revolver. This tool makes loading a breeze. Works well on the full size revolvers also.

Works as it should, but the aluminum is soft. Bent easily

The Hand is machined from 3/4" solid aircraft 6061 aluminum. If it bent, then it’s not being used correctly.

I purchased this recently and it fits both my 1861 Navy and my Ruger Old Army. It is extremely well made as are all the Slixpring products. Thank you.

Essentially this gives one a better, more comfortable grip on the load arm, being thicker, it helps allow the operator to apply a little extra arm leverage to ease the loading process, this is especially helpful when reloading more then one cylinder. Take a chance, if u get one, u'll luv it.

It works well on short barreled pistols.

Should have gotten one a long time ago!

No more sore hands. Works great.

Awesome tool!! Works great on my Colts and Remington pistols.
Should even help with my standard sized pistols if and when I need carpel tunnel surgery.
Ok,??? What is the third notch for??
Great job guys. Excellent product.

The smaller notch is for Pocket Revolvers.

This unique tool provides great comfort
and leverage when loading my pocket revolvers. I NO longer need to suffer that pain!
This tool is my palm saver...

made loading much easier.

Loading the Uberti 1849 Pocket and the 1862 Pocket Navy can be painful. The loading lever is just too short to use comfortably. The SliX Hand gives me the leverage and comfortable grip that makes loading endurable with these small pistols. It also works well with the larger Army and Navy models.

Only gave 4 stars, it could have been a tad longer for more leverage. Definitely helps in loading.

This gives very good leverage on short loading levers.

The tool fits a little funky but it will work and save the palm of my hand from being hurt.

I use this for my .44 1851 sheriff, works great for added leverage to load the ball.

when you older some times it is hard to press in the ball this solves the problem

Helped me load revolvers with a shorter loading leaver.

I think this little helper will save a lot sore hands I haven’t tried it yet but seems like great addition to my cap n ball inventory
