I dry fire mine. The annoying part is the mag disconnect, so you have to have a mag seated to dry fire.

Just as a general rule I wouldn't dry fire any rimfire, unless the manufacturer says its okay. Even then I probably wouldn't do it.

I've dry fired mine quite a bit and have not noticed any metal peening.
BTW, QUIT THINKING AND START BUYING! That little P22 is one of the coolest .22s ever made. It's accurate, reliable, and looks just like a teeny tiny uber-tactical combat pistol. Get the teeny, tiny laser too. It is the schiznit.

Put the safety on and pull the trigger...
It blocks the firing pin |

I'd suggest reading the reviews at that link before buying. I use snap caps (a different type, mine are blue) in my P22, but only for loading/unloading demonstrations. I don't dry-fire with them, because I think the firing pin would beat the crap out of the snap caps. It's much different than a centerfire snap cap, which has the little rubbery piece where the firing pin hits. |

I didn't bother to read the reviews- just linked the first ones I found on Google as an example. I know several manufacturers make them. |

I removed mine along with the internal lock +1 on the mag disconnect. left the trigger lock tho. the guns are SUPER simple to take completely apart. only tools needed are 1/8" pin punch and hammer, and a #1 phillips screwdriver. |
