Question 1

can you dry Fire with these? I can't see paying $8 for only 2 snap caps when I can get 5 of these for $10.

Accepted Answer

I contacted Magpul directly on dry fire....here is their response - Direct from Magpul Tech Team...Yes.  Our dummy rounds are specifically designed for all safe side practice use in your rifle.  They are made from the same polymer our PMAGS are made from.  They will not affect or damage your firing pin if you do a dry fire test over and over again.  They are made to the standard specs of a .223/5.56 rnd so you can test cycle and fire your weapon safely.  Hope this helps.Thanks

Question 2

has anyone tried these with a Tavor

Accepted Answer

Works fine in my Tavor but, like the AR, they're very tight in the chamber. I would suggest giving the case body a verrrry light sanding to reduce the exterior dimensions so they slide in and out of the chamber more easily. If you're using them to practice failure drills it won't replicate a true failure since you'll have to yank on that charging handle much harder then normal to extract them.

Question 3

What is the point of owning these?

Accepted Answer

I am 30 yr gun collector/shooter etc. I always use dummy rounds to function test any new guns I buy as I only buy thru online dealers never from local gunshops so I use these type rounds for again function tests before I accept any transfer from my FFL.

I also use em for again tests after repair or modding my guns as well as for malfunction and reloading drills etc as dry firing your gun will cause unnecessary wear. Just make sure you never never have live ammo in the same room as your firearms or practice rounds. Its a golden rule!

Question 4

Do these leave plastic plastic shavings or debris in internals of the gun?

Accepted Answer

Any good gun owner would keep his weapon clean and ready. Punch the bore and swab the barrel as if you just fired on the range with live rounds. Any plastic in the bore or barrel will be gone.
