What is the CARLSON'S - Rimfire Snap Caps .22 Long Rifle, Aluminum?

Snap caps are great for dry fire practice because they let you concentrate on keeping the firearm steady during the trigger pull, which helps eliminate flinch when using live ammo. Solid aluminum Rimfire snap caps protect the breech face and will last for hundreds of "shots".

  • Prevents damage and prolongs main spring life.
  • Precision machined to true SAAMI specs.
  • Primer material is correct hardness to prevent striker/firing pin over-protrusion.
  • Aluminum won't damage the chamber/extractor/ejector.
  • Snap Caps are a critical training aid for learning how to fix malfunctions quickly and efficiently not only for competition shooters but for anyone who has a gun for self-defense.


SPECS: Aluminum body, fits .22 LR rifles and pistols.

THAT'S WHY I BUY MORE!
Yes, they are damaged/cratered when used as snap caps. I agree with other reviewers who observe that dry firing with these damages the rims. THAT'S WHY I JUST ORDERED MORE!! These beauties allow me to use a pair of S&W revolvers for dry fire practice. Unlike the plastic snap caps, these aluminum dummy rds never break into pieces. As they become too cratered to fit, I toss them and rotate newer rds into their place. I keep a couple of newer, uncratered sets on my bench for testing BX10 and BX25 magazines. I also keep one dummy rd in the chamber of each of my 22rf semi-auto pistols, so I can lower the hammer without damaging the breechface. These are consumable parts; just like brake shoes on a car. For the two purposes for which they are made, they are the best product on the market. I'm glad that Brownells keeps them available.

excellent product
these aluminum snap caps work much better than plastic snap caps that I have used in the past. By rotating the rim of the snap cap to an unused area, you can get a lot of use from each one.

Works as expected
Since you can't spring-load a rimfire snap cap, these work just fine. Yes, the firing pin leaves a dent, turn the cap a bit and try again until the rim is fully dented. I believe it is still effective even though the rim of the cap is fully dented. The point is to prevent denting the barrel edge and these do that just fine. Of course, you can also use a fired .22 case for the same effect. It's just harder to chamber.

Not snap caps.
I bought these to troubleshoot a feeding and ejection issue. The idea being to test the feeding and ejection without live ammo. They fed and ejected well. I did NOT allow the firing pin to strike them. They worked perfectly for my purposes. If you intend dry firing your .22, these are not what you need.
