If these are the same nipples as installed on the other one, I've got a couple of questions...

Is the nose of the hammer that strikes the cap dished out? If so, the easiest way to make them fire is to take down some of the inside of the round part of the hammer where it contacts the frame. The other method is to get a new hammer in one of the cheap kits (which contains the trigger, hand, spring and etc) distributed by Cabelas for the 51/60.
