    In theory a real primer will soon get dented in and not cushion the firing pin. Supposedly, commercial snap caps have rubber or spring loaded “primers”.

    Snap caps are also useful for practising feed, bolt running, reloading the mag etc which I do in the dark, by feel.

    I make it a rule to never have both live ammo and the red snap caps out at the same time.
