I'm guilty too! A few years ago Cabelas had them so cheap I bought 2. One to shoot and one to look at I guess lol! PS still haven't shot either one I'm slacking off in the shooting and having fun dept. This summer for sure

What nipple wrench fits the Pietta Spiller and Burr?

 

[Panzerschwein]

Okay, guys. I sold my Pietta made S&B last year but I decided to get another one to give it a fair shake. Should be arriving here tomorrow and on Saturday, I'll shoot the thing at the range. While it might not be a particularly accurate reproduction, I've read that they're good shooters. We shall see.

PS: Still looking for the proper nipple wrench for these.

Just got my new Spiller & Burr in from DGW:



I have to say, I am much more satisfied with this specimen than I was with my old one. The wood grips are quite presentable. They still have a rather odd red tint to them, but the workmanship is far better on these grips. The action and mainspring are quite a bit smoother on this example as well. In general, the fit and finish is a cut above what I got a year or two ago with my first Pietta S&B.

I am excited. I have everything all ready to go shoot the gun tomorrow. I've been kind of out of the cap n' ball loop lately, been focusing on my single-shot pistols. Hopefully the Pietta Spiller & Burr does well tomorrow. I'll be sure to let everyone know!
