    Need help with a Zoli Mississippi

    Hello All,

    I am in the process of rebuilding an older Zoli Mississippi and am having a hard time figuring out what size nipple to purchase. The rifle had a small diameter cone on it, I'd like to replace that with a musket cap size cone and get a spare for the implement box. I just cant find one that fits. I've tried the cone from a Euroarms Miss with no luck, Euro enfield with no luck and AS 1842. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards,
    Scott Sheets

    Thanks

    Thanks for the link. I did some searching and think it takes a 5/16x24.

    Go to Lowe's or an Ace Hardware store. They have a little display that you can screw it into that will tell you what size and thread it is. Then try Buffalo Arms Dixie Gun Works or any one of the sutler links on this site.

    Hardware store visit

    Well, I took your advice and went to the hardware store. Now I'm thinking it's an 8x.1 . I think I'm just going to order one of each size and see what they all fit then go from there. Think 5/16x18,20,24 and an 8x.1
