Title: Dry Firing
Post by: bugsandbones on September 25, 2012, 02:25:53 AM
I know dry firing damages real firearms but would it damage a 1377 air pistol?
And if so how much? When I first got it a while ago I dry fired it after pumping it quite a few times and I hope this isn't going to affect the velocity or power down the road.
Thanks,
Greg

No problem dry firing those pump or CO2 pistols.  Just don't do it with a springer. RC

Thank goodness. I knew about the springers I never dry fire those.
And of course point in safe direction. :)
