I am an old guy who never dry fires a gun. Old habits die hard, especially when you agree with the habit. I am aware that it will not harm most modern firearms. My biggest problem is pulling the trigger of a cocked firearm without the expectation that it will go off! A bad habit by my way of thinking. I don't want to become casual with picking up a gun and snapping it and I don't want someone new to the hobby to see me doing it and think it's ok. accidents happen and I never want to snap a gun without worrying where the bullet will go. I suppose that if you have a sand bucket handy then it's safe, but this will still train your mind that it's ok, it wont go off.
