Without a snap cap.

OK or not?

[Justin]

I sure hope so...:uhoh:

As far as I know, it should be ok, but I'd certainly be willing to bow to any authorities on the topic.

[Schuey2002]

AFAIK (and after doing some reading on Park Cities Tactical) it's OK.. :o

Mike - I have not tried this (yet) ......... but it was suggested to me that it would not be too difficult to take a fired case .... deprime it ... and replace the primer with some nylon rod .. tho I would expect myself to maybe have to turn down from a larger size... make a small ''dummy primer''

This would give something for the firing pin to impinge upon .... and whilst most guns will dry fire Ok .. i always feel ''better'' if there is something ''in the way''.

i surenhope it's ok...i've been doing it for 15+ years now.

if you ever did any damage to it, the striker is a chinch to change too

It's much easier & cheaper to buy & use the snap cap just in case rather than to replace a P7 firing pin ;)

[Mike Irwin]

And it would have been emminently cheaper to not buy the gun in the first place... :neener:

[Greg Bell]

No problem

[New_comer]

I'd use a snap cap to dry fire a P7.


Over here, it's a $2000 pistol. :eek:


What's a $2 snap cap compared to that? ;)

[WonderNine]

I should hope it's safe to dry fire a gun that costs $1,400 NIB these days. :rolleyes:

But yea, if I was planning on doing any extended dry firing sessions I would get some snap caps anyways.

[care-less]

Snap caps are cheap insurance against damage on any firearm. Can't imagine any reason to dryfire without them!!! If nothing else, deprime a case, and fill the hole with shoe goe or silicone caulk.
