Default So, gun guys?

I don't shoot Glocks or Sigs, and never really cared for them too much,
just a preference.
Dry firing a 1911 doesn't really matter to much on the pin itself, but
its a good way to flatten out the firing pin spring prematurely.
For the most part, snaps caps used in semi autos are for teaching
purposes, Staggered in the magazine. They're primarly used to show the
shooter when flinching.
Same can be done with revolvers, but I stand by my earlier statement
that its not a good idea to dry fire revolvers with spurred hammers
without snap caps, again not so much because of the firing pin itself,
but the roll pin.
I'm done. UD

I thought it was more fun to stagger .357 rounds with .38 wadcutters to
correct the flinching problem!
