| Hi, can I, without snap caps, dry fire my new AR-15...Will it damage anything? |

Quoted:
Don't dry fire it with the upper away from the lower. You can break the lower if the upper is not in place. You can still do it when receivers are separate, just put some pressure (slight) on the hammer so it does not slam into the receiver. You can then just push the hammer back into position and squeeze again. Though I did have a buddy who tried his damndest to "break" his lower by allowing the hammer to slam into it and after a plethora of attempts, it barely took some of the finish off. |
