Description

Perazzi 12g Snap Caps
 

Perazzi 12g Snap Caps are high-quality dummy cartridges designed to protect your shotgun’s firing mechanism during dry firing and storage. Built to suit premium shotguns like Perazzi over-and-under models, these snap caps cushion the firing pin impact using a spring or polymer “false primer,” helping extend the life of internal components. They are also ideal for safe training and function testing without live ammunition.

  • Clay shooters and hunters maintaining high-end firearms

  • Anyone wanting to protect firing pins and springs from wear
