Carlson's 00108 Snap Caps provide safe dry-fire training for 12 gauge shotguns without risking firing pin damage. These precision-manufactured training rounds allow shooters to practice trigger control and cycling drills with complete confidence.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard plastic snap caps that crack after limited use, Carlson's snap caps feature a spring-loaded striking surface that absorbs firing pin impact repeatedly. The brass construction matches the weight and feel of live ammunition, providing realistic training feedback. Each snap cap withstands thousands of dry-fire cycles while protecting valuable firing pin components from metal-on-metal contact damage.
Key Features
- Spring-loaded primer area absorbs firing pin strikes safely
- Brass construction matches live shell weight and balance
- 12 gauge chamber compatibility with all shotgun actions
- Bright orange color prevents confusion with live ammunition
- Smooth cycling through semi-automatic and pump actions
- Reusable design withstands repeated training sessions
- Two-pack quantity for extended practice sessions
These snap caps excel in competitive shooting preparation, allowing athletes to practice mount and swing techniques without live fire restrictions. Law enforcement and military training programs utilize them for malfunction drills and weapon familiarization exercises. The realistic weight distribution helps maintain proper muscle memory during off-season practice periods.
