Spitfire nipples

[Riverbravo]

Does anyone have experience with Spitfire nipples? Are they as good as hot shot? I am having trouble locating hot shot and flamethrower but plenty of places have Spitfires.

I have used them and find they work nicely.

I like them as much as the hot shot nipples but like the Knight Red Hot nipples even more.

I've used them and they work just fine.

I prefer them to the Hot Shots. They don't have the vent holes which spray powder residue all over.

I have one rifle with a Spitfire and one with a Hot Shot. Like the others have said they work just fine but I shoot real black powder so ignition isn't a real issue. If you're shooting synthetic the Spitfire may be the best choice.
