Unpopular opinion, but I dry fire all my guns rim fire or centre fire. Just part of functions test after I clean them. Never had an issue with it, they are a lot stronger than people say

I used to be like that with rimfire until I broke 2 firing pins. But the weird thing is, I have another one of the same models, and I have over 1000 dry fires on it with no issues at all. So it's one of those things where you don't know if it's fine to do it or not until the firing pin just breaks on you randomly.
