HAWES 36 cal navy nipple thread?

[jrmflintlock]

Hey ya’ll I know it’s been a while since I was here but I know you guys are quite knowledgeable in these things. I have a HAWES 36 caliber navy and it’s in need of new nipples. Can anyone tell me what thread they have and where I might get some? Thanks!!

Hawes was an importer. Need photos of manufacturer and date code. It could be an Uberti, Pietta, Armi San Marco, Armi San Paolo, or other manufacturer.

Once you have determined that, Track Of The Wolf should have something to fit.

Easier to take a nipple to a hardware store with a thread tester to measure the threads. The nipple threads on the Hawes will likely be 6mm-0.75. You will want to measure the overall length and thread length. Track of the Wolf has a good selection of nipples for revolvers.

I contacted track and they told me which ones. I will take them to a hardware store today and see what I can discover! Thanks all!
