Pedersoli nipple thread size
« 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

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.
