Glock Question

[Hobie8]

Does dry-firing a Glock damage it? Owner's Manual was a little vague on this, or I missed something.....

 

[esrice]

NOPE! Any quality firearm should be able to dry-fire and not break.

 

[Lars]

No. You could dryfire your Glock a million or more times if you wanted.

Esrice, is that for real? Just when I think I've seen it all.....

Yep, for real. Useful for trainings and practice and such.

I've even seen a Glock with holes cut in the slide so you can see all the mechanics of what happens when the trigger is pulled, etc. VERY cool.

Sure is. They're about $15.

Think about it a minute-- when doing dry-fire practice how many times do you hear instructors say over and over again "clear the room of ALL ammo, make sure the weapon is clear, make sure again, and again. . . ."

This handy little piece of plastic simply replaces your existing barrel, making your Glock instantly unable to load or shoot ammo. You could even *accidentally* load up a full magazine and rack the slide, but there's no place for the round to go.

if you do any dry fire or dry practice at all, this would be better than the $15 of ammo in the long run. imho.

How about spending that $15 on snap caps instead? Then you could use them in other guns too.

I was trained to dry fire it with a dime on top of the slide. Helps show errors when dry firing. Pick a small spot aim, squeeeeeeeeze.

If the sights stay on the spot and the dime stays put you did well young jedi.....

 

[Hobie8]

Cool idea....I tried it, and didnt drop the dime, kept sights on target too! Thanks for the tip!
