Title: Pedersoli nipple thread size
Post by: Doc Or on May 07, 2008, 12:37:32 AM

Would anyone know the thread size for this SXS shotgun?

I've been trying to find the size with no luck yet.

Thank You

Most are 1/4 U.N.F.

Pedersoli nipples are metric.  Most Italian rifles use a 6-.75 mm thread.  Don't know about the shotgun but maybe it is the same.  The package I have here is an Uncle Mikes Hotshot #2841.

Thanks for the info . They are 1/4-28.
The Hot Shots are much better then the originals.
