[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4372052, member: 15054"] I bought a used Ruger 22 revolver from a member here that got it from another member here with the stipulation that it was picky on what ammo went into it. Yea that was because some guy dry fired it. What happened is it dinked and puched in the area where the rim of the 22 ammo would rest and would not allow you to stick the ammo into the hole because of the protrusion blocking the hole at the top. Just so happened I had my chain saw with me when I went to shoot the Ruger and I had my round files. I took a round file and filed the problem spot. So for me it is a HUGE NO. It is not good practice to dry fire a rim fire. I am not mad about the buy and in fact I am educated from that purchase. [/QUOTE]
