I've always considered dry firing a weapon a really bad idea...... I
just wouldn't do it....
If I come to answer the door, I'm not taking the gun out, just to do
so.....
Dry firing a double action revolver is a good way to learn how to control
the trigger finger. I was taught to do so by one of my cop brothers while
on a firing range. It makes firing the revolver a distinctly two step pull
of the trigger finger and greatly helps accuracy.
