I used 2 CVA Barrels in recent builds of Leman Style guns. The top gun is a 45cal barrel from a CVA Kentucky kit and the bottom gun has a 50cal barrel from a CVA Hawken kit. Both of these drums were fitted with 6-1 MM Hot Shot nipples that screwed right in. I wonder if the Squirrel barrel is a different threaded drum? As said above they may have sent mislabeled nipples. Track just sent me two vent liners that were mislabeled a few weeks ago.

I'll get this done as soon as I can. I'm in the process of moving stuff and most of my tools including my calipers got packed up and put in storage temporarily. I'll try to get them out this weekend. In the meantime I'm trying to find a 6-.75 nipple to try for fit.

I just took the nipple out of my Traditions Tennessee rifle and tried it, it won't fit in the Squirrel rifle's drum either.
