I have a reproduction 1858 Remington Army made by Gregorelli & Uberti for Navy Arms in 1960. I bought this gun 56 years ago and it is in great condition except for one bad nipple. To date I haven't been able to find a replacement nipple of the correct size. Following is all of the information I have about the gun and the nipple size. Hopefully, one of you guys can give me the correct nomenclature for this nipple size and a lead on where I can buy a set.

Markings:
Top of barrel: NAVY ARMS CO. INC. BOGOTA-N.J. USA
Bottom of barrel under loading lever: G&U - MADE IN ITALY - (G&U = Gregorelli and Uberti)
Serial Number: 216
Date Mark: XVI (1960)

Approximate nipple size:
Length: .438
Diameter: .232
TPI: 32

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide
