[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1305572, member: 10291"] Yes, it is un-wise to dry fire a 22. With most designs the firing pin will hit the chamber mouth when fired with no round in the chamber. The occasional dry fire is probably not an issue but done excessively it is very possible to not only peen the firing pin, but also create a dent in the chamber mouth, producing misfires. Get some dummy dry fire csrtridges. [/QUOTE]
