Removing nipples
I too remove the nipples after every shooting session. I use QTips moistened with "Moose Milk" to clean the fouling from the threads and the nipple recess in the cylinder. The first thing I do in the cleaning process is remove the nipples and place them in a small tub to soak in "Moose Milk"... -

You fine fellows are lucky.
Hi there, yes I eluded to the Angelina and Davy Crokett National forests in my posts above even though I didn' tlist them by name. I went to SFA in the 90's and hunted it some and even then the maps provided by the Forresty Service made the area looke like a checkerboard because of all of the...- TexasAndy

SlixShot Sold out of Pietta Nipples
Yesterday, while searching the web I found a product that Ted Cash sells on his site called "Spitfire" nipples. They look like an interesting design and I may try some at some point. They don't appear to have one for Uberti's but there is a thread pitch for Pietta's. Spitfire #11 Nipples |... -
You fine fellows are lucky.
What's odd/unfair is that my father is from a little town called Hico in central Texas not far from Hamilton or Stephenville. His family used to own some property but when my grandmother passed in 90' the three surviving brothers couldn't agree what to do with it and so they just sold it.- TexasAndy

You fine fellows are lucky.
I totally understand but between New Mexico, Colorado , Wyoming and Montana there are millions and millons of acres of BLM land. In Texas we have one area in deep East Texas about 2 hours from Houston and at one time it was about 100,000 acres but I understand much of it has been sold off as...- TexasAndy

Lets see some percussion revolvers!
I bought this last Saturday at my local Cabelas. Pietta has come a long way in the 20 years since I bought my last one. -
You fine fellows are lucky.
I sure would like to try my hand at harvesting a whitetail with a sidelock but with so little public land in Texas that will be difficult(99% of the state is in private hands). In addition I've seen what leases cost on a well managed piece of property. My buddy up in Wyoming has offered to...- TexasAndy

So what's next for the collection?
Would a 6 1/2" version do on that Pocket Police? I ask because The Possibles Shop has them in stock. -
So what's next for the collection?
Yes, it has been a combination of factors that has created the perfect storm which impacted the firearms market. I speculate though that there will be lots of used guns for sale in 18-24 months when many of these new buyers realize that they are not "gun people". -
So what's next for the collection?
If you haven't already figured it I love percussion revolvers. My collection is starting to get pretty rounded out I've got a Uberti 1860 Army, 1861 Navy, 3rd model Dragoon and an 1858 NMA. I've now got 3 Pietta's a "Navy" brass frame in .44 a Sheriff's model with a round 61' style barrel in... -
RMC Ox-Yoke
I just wanted to do a shout out for the fine folks at RMC-Ox Yoke. They have been the go-to place for much of shooting needs the last couple of months and even with the Covid craziness they are usually getting orders out in 1-2 business days. I highly recommend them if you have not done...- TexasAndy

SlixShot Sold out of Pietta Nipples
So you bought the "Track" nipples then? -
New 1851 Navy range report
So I took the new Pietta Navy out to the range on Sunday and had a blast shooting it and another one of my Pietta revolvers. I meant to keep some of the targets to share but the place was so busy I didn't want to wait 20 minutes to retrieve them. It seemed to shoot about 1/34-2.5" at 15 yds... -
SlixShot Sold out of Pietta Nipples
So apparently SlixShot is out of their Pietta nipples which is what I really want. Their site is claiming they will be available late this month but considering manufacturing with Covid I don't have high hopes. What is another good source with a similar product?? I know Track of the Wolf has... -
This stray came home with me today
You know the only thing I was not entirely thrilled about was the quasi form 4473 they made me fill out. It had the same questions as the federal form but on white paper and their corporate letter head. I told them that these items are not regulated federally or by the state but that did not... -
This stray came home with me today
While visiting my local Cabelas this afternoon this fellow ended up coming home with me. It's a Pietta and I have to say it is worlds better than the Pietta's I have bought in the past. It's nicely timed and beautifully finished. It is my understanding that the rifling twist is not ideal for...
