GT,
If you want to do it the safest way possible, then just resize some fired 9mm brass, and prime them with a fresh primer. Then you can chamber it with the toggle open, and allow the toggle train to slam forward. No powder or projectile to worry about. If it pops the primer, it would fire the cartridge. You could do this in your shop. Just a thought.
PS...If you can't resize fired brass, then just remove the bullet and powder from a loaded round. The result will be the same.
