I am in the process of doing an action job (Colt 1849 Hartford model by Palmetto with 5.5" barrel), when I saw the the Nipple thread length are shorter than normal. I compared then to my other Remingtons and Colts with 6.75mm nipples. I looked and in the Chamber the Nipples only go half way down in the thread. Should I be concerned about firing until I replace the Nipples?
