These weighted 12ga shotgun snap caps (dummy rounds) have the same feel and weight as a live round which makes them perfect for practicing reloads for competitive shooting events, like 3-Gun. A spring loaded striking area cushions and protects the release of the firing pin which makes these an excellent tool for teaching and eliminating flinching as well. Features: 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 Packages of 5 snap caps are bare minimum for training with multiple magazines for pistols. 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.
