Slix nipples
Martin House - 07/16/2026
As many others have said, ”I put them on everything”.
These are especially important on the pocket revolvers. These little rascals are notorious for cap jams. I’m not going to say everything is unicorn piss, fairy poop and rainbows, but it’s better. I can get thru a couple of cylinder-fulls with out major jamage.
On my ‘51 navy, caps needed a squeeze before putting ‘em on the nipple. None of that mule poop now. What a change. A few revolvers is all I need caps on, rock lochs from Jim Kibler for long guns.

I have never had a problem with any product I purchased from Slixshot. I've used them now on 2 pistols I'm restoring and the nipple wrench is the best I have.
Review: Pocket Pistol Nipples
Paul L. - 06/21/2026
I replaced the original nipples for a Pietta 1863 pocket Remington revolver with the Slix Shot nipples. Number 11 CCI caps fit much better and the cylinder to frame cap jams are much reduced. The caps remain in place with no need to "pinch", so, I can use my in-line capper while loading. The capping cutout in the pistol frame is very small which makes my fat arthritic fingers really like the new nipples.
Awesome upgrade
Brandon - 06/07/2026
Quality products and a must upgrade for your black powder revolvers! I’ve ordered two times now and will continue to in the future.
Why not improve your pocket revolver?
James G Winters Jr - 04/30/2026
Everyone should know that Slixshot nipples are great for their Walker/Dragoon-sized reproductions to the 1851 Navies - and everything in between. But they are also great for your pocket models!

Paul L - 04/20/2026
Replaced original nipples on 1862 Colt repro due to unreliable fire. The Slix Shot nipples corrected the reliability and reduced the number of cap jams. I intend to replace the nipples on my 1849 pocket Colt.
Really nice nipples
Rudolph & Bronte - 04/17/2026
This nipples are a huge upgrade from factory. They fire every time when new caps are used. Highly recommend.

SliXshot for Uberti Colt 1962 Pocket Navy
Peter Zuck - 01/05/2026
I have these on my Uberti Pocket Navy and Pocket Police models, but they also thread onto a Signature Series (3rd Generation Colt) Trapper's Model as well.
They do an excellent job of staying on the nipple preventing jams and cap sucking so prevalent with Colt replicas.
