Traditions Performance Firearms Muzzleloader Nipple Wrench - Revolver, w/Nipple Pick, Black (A1260) (Colors May Vary)

If you shoot black powder revolvers or are thinking of getting into them, this is a must have. It was made nicely and it fit the nipples on my Pietta New Model Army perfectly. My only gripe is that the pick is a bit flimsy and it can easily bend and possibly break. Other than that I love this thing and it's going in my shooting bag.

Trash. 3 nipples removed and the tool broke itself into the grooves for the tool on the nipple. I was not using any vise or tool to torque on the tool, just bare handed. The material/quality of this is so sad. Going to try for a refund and start searching for a more quality tool.

Works perfectly on my Traditions 1851 revolver.

It will work. This wrench is a good tool to have. Those who say it sucks are using it wrong. When you use it, make sure to put anti-seize lube on the threads of the percussion cones for easy removal next time, and tighten it just enough to make it stay in place so it ain't loose, both of which will save wear on the wrench. Make sure to have full contact between the teeth and the percussion cones.

First of all, I ordered this a month ago, considering the state of the country right now I allowed more time than usual for it to arrive, once amazon declared it lost I contacted the sellers NightGalaxy and three days later it was at the house! Thanks guys! Now for the product review! I have read all these negative reviews on here about this nipple wrench, I just used it to remove the nipples for both my 1851 Colt Navy and my 1858 Remington New Model Army cylinders, both made by Pietta. I had absolutely no problem with getting them out or putting them back in, this nipple wrench worked just fine, I saw none of the problems so far that the other reviewers encountered, maybe I just got lucky? I don’t know, I do know that I didn’t apply to much pressure on the tool as I didn’t have to, I had fired about 150 loads through each cylinder before removing the nipples and they came out with ease, when I put them back in I made sure not to over tighten, I expect to get years of service from this wrench!! Don’t let the negative reviews deter you from buying it, with a light hand it works perfectly fine!

Worked flawlessly to remove, install and pick my 1989 (vintage) CVA 1858 remington army revolver nipples. I read the reviews and I believe those who bent the tool etc, just haven't taken the proper precautions to keep the nipples at the proper torque. I use my revolver regularly, clean it every time and always apply product to the nipples threads before reinstalling. This tool got them out with very little effort. The tool itself seems well made and solid. I personally WOULD recommend this for BP revolver shooters. And would gladly buy it again if needed.

By the time I got to the 3rd nipple for its first use it started chipping apart. And I couldn't even make it through the 6th nipple before the wrench became unusable. The metal is just way too soft. I used it on my 1851 colt that had never been shot. And I oiled the cylinder a lot before hand to be safe since I saw a couple reviews on the wrench being weak, but I didn't expect it to be this bad.

This tool will not remove a tight percussion nipple, let alone a rusty nipple, without the tip of the tool tearing. It is made of a soft and unhardened steel that will never stand up to the rigors of a percussion nipple that has been fired through, and allowed to sit for a few days. This tool will not even remove factory installed nipples without tearing. If the percussion nipples are not too tight, and have had the threads treated with anti-seize lubricant, this tool will work alright. One of the two tools that I bought was not manufactured properly, and would not even fit on the percussion nipples. Do not buy this item.
