- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2025Works well, lasts long.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2024Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5)
The A-Zoom 15116 9mm Luger Precision Snap Cap 5 Pack is exactly what I needed for dry firing practice and firearm maintenance. These snap caps are well-made and work perfectly for protecting the firing pin during dry fire sessions. The precision-machined construction ensures a consistent fit, and the bright red color makes them easy to spot.
I’ve used them extensively for practicing my trigger control, and they’ve held up well with no signs of wear. The 5-pack is a great value, and I like having extras on hand. They also serve as a good tool for safety checks and chamber clearing.
Highly recommend these to anyone who wants to practice dry firing safely and protect their firearm at the same time!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2025I read most of the reviews, both positive and negative before I purchased these. This is my second set of these as I wanted to practice with 10 rounds instead of five. I have cycled these through a Glock 43 about 500 times with no issues that others have stated. They may not work for everyone or every weapon, but they worked flawlessly for me.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2025These dummy rounds were purchased about two years ago and are starting to show wear from use. They are a painted metal and the paint has started coming off due to the scratchiness of metal on metal from the rounds moving in and out of the chamber, most likely mainly the extractor. They were worth the money and definitely a justified purchase for dry firing practice however they do have a life span on their use. Compared to the polymer ones offered by Magpul they are standing up pretty well as the polymer dummy rounds get beat up pretty bad pretty quickly.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2024To be fair and honest, I will use this same review for all the snap caps I have purchased, nothing changes just because the caliber does.
Snap caps are an inexpensive tool to use for training your trigger pull and reaction when pulling the trigger of your pistol. Before you take your pistol to the range, throw a few of these caps in pistol and practice squeezing the trigger so you get the feel of how much force you need and where it breaks when firing. Next, place a nickel or dime on the front of the barrel (on a semi-auto, this won't work on revolvers), close to the front site. Find a target to aim at, squeeze the trigger until the hammer fires, all while trying to keep the coin in place. Many people will flinch while pulling the trigger in anticipation of the of the upcoming shot. This practice will help minimize or eliminate this problem. The best part about this practice is you're not wasting ammo at the range, now when you get there you can feel more confident.
These caps are used to protect the firing pin from bottoming out in its bore buy absorbing the impact when the trigger is pulled. You don't have to use them, but if you break a firing pin and have to have a gunsmith install a new one, the price for these caps would have been a real bargain.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2025Great product for training with safety in mind, and training for failures and how to clear them safely.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2023The A-Zoom 15116 9mm Luger Precision Snap Cap 5 Pack is a remarkable addition to any firearm enthusiast's arsenal. Designed with precision and functionality in mind, these snap caps serve as invaluable tools for firearm training, function testing, and dry firing practice.
Crafted to exacting standards, these snap caps replicate the dimensions of live ammunition, allowing users to safely practice loading, unloading, and cycling their firearms without the risk of damaging the firing pin. The durable aluminum construction ensures longevity and reliability, withstanding repeated use without deformation or deterioration.
One of the standout features of the A-Zoom Snap Cap is its ability to mimic the providing an authentic shooting experience during training sessions. This realistic simulation enhances firearm handling skills, trigger control, and overall proficiency without the expense of live ammunition.
The bright red coloring of the snap caps offers high visibility, making them easily distinguishable from live rounds and aiding in quick identification during drills or storage.
Moreover, the pack containing five snap caps ensures an adequate supply for various practice sessions, making it a cost-effective investment for both beginners and seasoned shooters.
In conclusion, the A-Zoom 15116 9mm Luger Precision Snap Cap 5 Pack stands out as a top-tier training accessory, combining durability, realism, and safety to enhance firearm handling skills and promote responsible gun practices.

Spaß beiseite - es handelt sich um Pufferpatronen, die das Abschlagen des Schlagbolzens dämpfen und somit diesen schonen. Funktioniert, alles super.

5.0 out of 5 stars These machined aluminium snap caps are the best option as a training aid
A must have training aid to check for function. These machined aluminium snap caps are the best option as a training aid. They're high quality and durable, they also have a rubber plug to protect the firing pin during dry firing exercise. These are by fare more durable than the clear plastic and brass snap caps from other manufacturers. While a bit pricy, they're worth it and will last you ages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality product
These are made of metal and don't feel cheap at all. I've run them through my PCC a dozen times or so and the only wear that's showing is a bit of chipped paint near the rim and the top of the 'case.' The 'primer' is made of some kind of rubber or plastic and takes hits from the firing pin without deforming crazily, just a small indentation in the centre. I'd definitely recommend these over plain dummy rounds or plastic snap caps.
