Default Re: Dry Fire

Jim, potentially it IS harmful and not advised at all, IMO. Snap caps may be one alternative, but I have heard HORROR stories of Collectible Lugers with matching parts being dry fired and the firing pin CRACK! Quite a costly event. Snap caps can take up the force of the firing pin without undo damage. Thor
