Clueless Bob Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I seem to remember seeing an approved cylinder modification for the 58 Remington, of opening the area around the nipple. I've tried looking on here again as well as the handbook, but cannot find it. So, was I just dreaming, or does it exist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedalia Dave Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 It exists as a ROC ruling and is a legal mod. There used to be a link to all of the ROC rulings but it appears to have been deleted. Maybe @PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L can post it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irish ike, SASS #43615 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 If you use a Ted Nash straight capper you don't have to do anything to the cylinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El CupAJoe Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 My 3d printed Polish Capper works on both sides of my ASM Remmy with no modifications to the cylinder or the Pietta Cylinder that also fits in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tequila Shooter Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 A polish capper or Ted Nash straight line will work without modifying. If you want to use a snail capper look at the picture that Mr. Pettifogger posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 The modification allows the use of ALL types of cappers, including these made by TED CASH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
