Can anyone point me in the right direction to find a CVA 1851 nipple wrench?

Wow! wormbobskey:
I don't have the ASM CVA Schematic, so I can't varify the nipple size.
Armi San Marco CVA 1851 Navy .36 cal and .44 cal. revolvers may use the same size nipple as Pietta.   But check it out cause I'm not real certain on this one.
Cabela's used to carry the "Davide  Pedersoli "  #015 nipple wrench which fits the Pietta guns perfectly (Nipple Size 6mm x .75mm).   The last time I purchased from them it came with a set of 6 nipples for $21.  This is a tough little wrench.  Others I've bought broke easily, or were too large and stripped off the nipples as most wrenches are softer than the nipple.

I've got a "standard" nipple wrench for my rifles, but its way to big to fit into the recessed area around the nipples. I'll check out your suggestion and also check and see if CVA has one they sell.

Track of the Wolf sells a revolver nipple wrench which will fit about any revolver except the little 1862 Colt, I've had to modify wrenches for those.

The Possible Shop has a new racheting nipple wrench that is a pleasure to use.
