Old Army Replacement Nipples
I'm looking to replace my Old Army nipples. The Rem #11's slip on a couple of the nipples. I bought some CCI #11 magnums and they don't seat well on a couple of nipples and gave many misfires.
I'd like to keep the hex head design as I went through a lot of trouble finding a tool to work with the Ruger set. But that's not exactly a must. I'd like to need only 1 nipple wrench when out in the field. I understand Blomquist makes 3/16" hex head nipples for several types of guns. I'd like a smaller flash hole, stainless steal, and the ability to use CCI #11's as they are the only size my LGS carries along with 777. I have had Track of The Wolf and Blomquist recommended. I've e-mailed ToTW and am interested in them, but would like to hear back from Blomquist before I decide on anything. ToTW sells theirs for nearly $2 less (ea.) which is great. I'd like to hear from people that have used either of these. I'm curious about the uniformity and function. Caps that worked well or did not. And if there is any others I'm not privy too... |
I am interested to hear if there are others as well. I also own an Old Army. A fine pistol a shame they are no longer in production.

Treso Nipples
the best there is for the ROA |
That's what I've been told on another forum. Treso... But I have to wonder if there isn't partiality to them as they are well known with a great reputation, and not so much due to them actually being better.
I'd sure hate to have to put that 3/16 nut driver in my tool box as I went through a lot of trouble finding it and I'd never use it again. I'm surprised I even found one! And it was their last. I've filled out half of the payment info earlier! |
