Nipple Size for Uberti - mystery solved?

[swathdiver]

Anyone?

I tried figuring out Jedediah Starr's part numbers but got tired of looking.

That said, the .235 thread diameter is a 6mm thread.

Look for the 6mm X .75mm threaded revolver or cap & ball nipples.

I mention this because there is a longer 6mm X .75mm nipple that fits the single shot pistols and rifles and it won't work in your revolver.

Thanks Zonie. My main reason for getting them was because of the hole size but they appear to be the same.

Jeb Starr's Ampco #1 Nipple section has a dropdown that includes nipples referenced as either "Older Italian" or "Newer Italian" andtheir sizes. I've only ordered the "Newer Italian" & they fit as original (for the Colt 1862 New Police, they are a proper length, not found in the factory nipple length).

You got to be kidding me!!! It's this hard to locate and install new Ampco nipples in my new Uberti? They don't provide an exact thread size? Thank you in advance.
