When I bought my wife one I dry fired it a bunch. Supposed to buff the moving parts. I've never heard it was bad.

GTG!!! I've heard of guys pulling the side plate and putting polishing compound on some of the parts and the dry firing the hell out of it to smooth everything out. I just see that as wearing out the parts prematurely, but goes to prove that regular dry firing will do no harm.

Dry fire it about 200 times a night for a week and you'll smooth that trigger out alot. |

Dry fire it all you want. Just use correct form so you don't program yourself wrong.

Smith's can be dry fired all day and well into the night. Your fingers will wear out before the pistol.

You aren't going to do it any real harm, but I'd suggest buying some snap caps. Dry snapping will mate the sear surfaces and knock off any burrs, but it isn't likely to get much lighter. I suggest replacing the trigger rebound spring with a lighter one from Wolff, knocking the sharp corners off the rebound slide and then polishing the rebound slide. Lube with a quality grease and reassemble. There will be a substantial improvement.

Even though I'm 99% sure dry firing won't cause any damage I use snap caps when dry firing. Snap caps are cheap.
