They don't recommend dry firing with these.

No, these are okay to dry fire with. Per a popular source, "These A-Zoom snap caps are great for safe cowboy sixgun and lever action dry firing practice drills. Quick Draw practice, too." It was my pleasure to assist you,

I'm sorry. I confused these for the other ones that are not made for dry fire. My apologies.

Jonathan, These snap caps are used to practice several things. Work on double action trigger pull. Practicing sight picture while pulling trigger. Some people use them in shooting to put one in cylinder with live rounds at range to work on flinch or not flinching. Use then for reloading cylinder practice. Anything you want to work on without using a live round..

Jonathan, yes Sir. They have a spring tension-ed center cap to safely dry fire hammers or firing pins. No worries with any type or duration of dry firing.
