Dry firing is how my owners' manuals tell you to lower the hammer after emptying the gun. Hurts nothing.
The no-no's are letting the slide slam home on an empty chamber and loading a round by dropping it in the chamber as opposed to loading from a magazine.

Are there really any guns that are 'damaged' through dry firing. I have heard of this being the case, but have not actually seen anything like this. Seems that would be a 'brittle' gun that I would be reluctant owning in the first place.
