The Traditions Snap Caps are a 6-pack of .45 ACP dummy rounds (brand part no. ASA45) built to protect your pistol during dry-fire practice and safe unloaded storage. Made with a durable plastic body and a brass base, these snap caps relieve stress on firing pins and firing pin springs by giving them something to strike instead of an empty chamber. Traditions recommends chambering snap caps before dry-firing or storing an unloaded firearm, letting the firing pin rest safely at a forward position. They are a simple, inexpensive way to protect your pistol’s internals over years of use.
