It is not good for several reasons. 1. Bad habit. I shot a hole in the trunk of my car. Thought the revolver was empty. I was wrong. 2. Will damage rim-fire weapons. 3.

Dry firing any gun is not a great idea. Specifically older guns where you can actually fracture the firing pins. Get some "snap caps" in the appropriate guage, then your all set, or you can buy a firing block that is held against the face of the action. either of these will absorb the force of the pins like a primer would.

Does dry firing an air soft gun hurt it?
Dry firing paintball guns can be harmful to the gun if done constantly. However, it is recommended that you dry fire your gun to ensure that no paintballs have been left inside the chamber. So, as long as it is only done every once in a while it will be okay. Dry firing actually does no harm at all unless your just sitting there pulling the trigger for 4 hours. Dry firing a marker is not potentially harmful to the marker. However, if you have a Bob Long Pillow Bolt upgrade, do not dry fire the marker. There is a chance to blow out the pillow off the bolt and ruin the bolt itself.

Does it hurt a gun to dryfire it?
Yes. The firing pin is intended to make contact with a cartridge primer. When this doesn't happen, and it "lands" on an empty chamber, this causes resonance in the firing pin which can increase wear and eventually break it. A much better alternative to dry firing would be to use either spent cartridge casings or the "snap cap" dummy cartridges which you can find at most gun shops. ***** Agree with above. In addition, dry firing many rim fire weapons may dent the mouth of the chamber, resulting in misfires.
