Description

A-Zoom Snap Caps 16ga

For safety training, test runs, or safe relaxation without damaging the firing pin, A-Zoom training cartridges are much more than conventional snap fasteners. They are precision CNC-milled from solid aluminum for precise cartridge dimensions, then hard anodized for ultra-smooth operation and long life. Plus, each cartridge features A-Zoom's remarkably durable "Dead Cap," which has been shown to withstand more than 3,000 dry fires while protecting the firing pin. A-Zoom snap caps last more than 30 times longer than conventional plastic examples and are available in over 120 sizes, from .22 Hornet to .50BMG.
