ABSTRACT:
A nipple usable to ignite a propellent charge in a firearm of the type which employs a percussive firing cap. The nipple includes an elongate body having, adjacent one end, a cap-receiving portion, and adjacent the opposite end, a mounting portion. Extending axially into the nipple, through the cap-receiving portion, is an elongate firing chamber. The outer surface of the cap-receiving portion is dimensioned to receive a firing cap, with the sides of the cap closely confronting such surface. A pair of diametrically opposed ports extend between and open to the firing chamber and to locations on the cap-receiving surface of the nipple, which locations are covered by the sides of the cap when the same is mounted in place.
