Mossberg and snap caps

[Saluki]

I have a brand new Mossy 500 bantam 12 gauge. I cleaned it up a bit the other day and then put it back together. I followed the directions in the manual for the function test and when the trigger is supposed to click it clicks. However, if I put in a "traditions" snap cap and cycle it through or place it in the chamber, then rack the slide the trigger will not budge. Is this a problem with the snap caps? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Not totally sure of your circumstances, but I too bought some snap caps for my M500 and only later realized that I really needed "dummy rounds" or "dummy shells" which are full size unlike the way-too-short-to-feed snap caps.
