Recommendations for Dry Firing SP-01

[hlpressley]

O-rings have always worked well for me. When I remember to use them...

I have dry fired my SP01 as much as I live shoot it (close to 9000 rounds).
I used an o-ring and snap caps for 5 minutes and removed them. I never went back to them again.
I had zero breakage of any kind. No trigger return spring and no firing pin. I just replaced the firing roll pin at about 500 rounds and still have the same one to this day.
But it seams that all CZ are not made the same as some people have issues.

I used a foam ear plug for probably 5000 pulls on my P-01 (*Cajunized*) and also did it on my new Phantom.

Trigger spring went south after 3000 pulls on the Phantom even with the plug installed.

P-01 didn't flinch.

I have a new Shadow 2 coming to me in a week and it'll be dry fired with the foam plug in place to be sure.

Range report coming right up.

I dry fired mine with a laser insert with my target system.  I thought all was good - until I went to install a short reset trigger system from Cajun.  The original firing pin retaining rollpin was all but destroyed and eaten up in the center.  I put the new Cajun one in, but will see if I can get an O-ring to work with the laser insert.

If you guys are looking for some quality snap caps check out Realistic Snap Caps.  I use them for malfunction drills too.  They look and feel like real rounds so be careful how you use them.  I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I just like them!

Personally, I prefer snap caps and dummy rounds that are drastically different in appearance from live ammo.

I agree.  I just take an orange paint pen to mine and they are easy to distinguish from live rounds, but I still find them very useful for training or malfunction drills and they last a long time for dry fire practice.

My sp01 tactical has a few hundred rounds down range but maybe 300 dryfires if I were to take a guess..when I installed my cgw pro package, I drove out that firing pin roll pin and it was pretty messed up..I had even broke it down when new to clean up everything and the pin was fine so you really do need the ring as some have suggested not needing it...

Same thing with my factory pin in SP-01.  The factory one is made of soft steel.  But the included roll pin that comes with CGW pro-package extened firing pin is harden steel so it should be able to withstand numerous dry firing sessions.
