Default Nambu Snap Caps on eBay...

If you've been wanting snap caps for your nambu, eBay item # 251468643449 - has "more than 10". Slightly high on price, but only slightly - and who can complain?

Four bucks apiece...OK, I guess. Why not just use a fired cartridge case???

"These are especially useful for releasing the tension on the mainspring for long-term storage of your gun."

...Uh...What???...

Fired cases don't feed too well!

No, and Bubba loading empty casings can take it's toll as well. I have a collection of different snap caps, I don't use them for storage but they're great when you need to test a gun after assembly or repairs. I just got through modifying an extractor on a Browning pistol, and the snap caps told me when I was done.
