172 USE SNAP CAPS THREE WAYS

Snap caps are dummy rounds that cushion the fall of the firing pin so that firearms can be safely dry-fired. Some manufacturers recommend them, and others contend that are not necessary, but they are cheap insurance. Here are three ways to use snap caps.

FLINCH TEST When practicing on the range, mix a snap cap in with your live rounds and you’ll quickly uncover poor shooting technique when the pin falls on a dummy round.
