How often do you dry fire?

[skyadrenaline]

I hear a lot that 80% of your practice should be dry fire and not with live ammo.

So how many you people actually do it? If I were to estimate, it's probably split 50-50 live ammo/dry fire.

When I was first starting out, I did it everyday till my sights wouldn't move.. Now I do it every once in a while..

Shooting is a perishable skill, do it often, and do it with no live ammo in the room.

[BigDogatPlay]

As often as I can, otherwise at least once a week. Working on only the fundamentals every time.

When I'm bored. Better than nothing i guess.

i use snap caps for my 9mms... i dont have any for the ar so some times i dry fire it but try to resist the urge....

[ocspeedracer]

While is still don't think dry firing is typically very safe, i am considering trying it more often and see if my shooting improves
I believe snap caps are a clever marketing ploy, and unless your rifle handgun is super old i don't believe you need them on anything.

I agree with whats said here except for the

no live ammo in the room.

I don't get this how stupid can a person be(not attacking you) that you cant even trust yourself enough to have ammo in the same room with you lol BIG BOY RULES PEOPLE! If you cant keep track of whats in your chamber you dont deserve to own a firearm. "Well accidents happen" BULL**** Darwinism happens you irresponsible dumb****(again not attacking you)

Only during a function or safety check. The rest of the time I just run around the house going "pew pew pew".

I do it often. Usually with a Glock or 1911. I have orange sticky targets on my wall for dryfiring.
