[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2410191, member: 15054"] I have a few #11 nipples in my stash and some just will not work. What i noticed on the ones that do not work is the nipple does not have a large enough flat surface. Another issue is the hammer is not aligned with the nipple..Some guns i have messed with will only contact the nipple on one of the edges. And like dlbleak stated the spring may be weak. Or could be that it is not the spring at all but the mechanism is binding from crud like rust or dried lube or carbon. Not allowing the spring to do it's job.. Could be a screw issue where the shoulder is worn and when you tighten it all up it puts the hammer in a bind. [/QUOTE]
