You can use a snap cap. You can purchase 5 snap caps from the Sportsmans Guide for $14.00. A snap cap is a plastic bullet case with out a primer or powder. It looks like a bullet in shape and has a spring that absorbs the strike of the firing pin. It is really great for dry fire practice.

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.
