Does anyone know where can I buy a good nipple wrench for a 1858 Remington replica that won't disintegrate the first time I use it?

Thank you.

Sadly, no. But if you find one, by all means share the wealth. This has been a problem for ever---it's odd no company has done anything about it.

I've used the CVA revolver nipple wrench (part #AC1489) for a couple years now and have had zero problems with it.

It shouldn't be THAT difficult to remove those nipples...................just make sure you use a little lube on the nipple threads when you install them and don't torque down on them, just tighten them til they stop turning & no more.
