Why I Use “Fake Bullets” In My Gun
By chris July 06, 2009
Here is a review I did of some dummy bullets, otherwise known as "snap caps".
While getting used to the gun it's a good idea to get a feel for the trigger and the exact amount of force required. Firing with no bullet in the chamber is called "dry firing" and generally looked down upon because it may be bad for the gun internals.
These snap caps allow the force of the firing pin to be absorbed with no damage or unnecessary wear to the firing pin.
