When is it safe to dry fire my firearm?
Most newer firearms are safe to dry fire, with the exception of rimfire. Older revolvers with the firing pin attached to the hammer run the risk of the pin breaking.
An excellent viable option to dry fire all firearms would be to use snap caps. Snap caps not only protect your firing pin, but are spring loaded and act like a fresh primed round.
