For those of you out there with AR .22 uppers...
DO NOT DRYFIRE THEM WITH AN EMPTY CHAMBER!!
I learned this lesson the hard in the past couple weeks as one too many empty-chamber dryfirings resulted in a busted firing pin spring. It was a 30 second fix, but not before shelling out $25 for a upper complete spring replacement.
I know it's tempting to pull that trigger, but if you simply cannot resist, do yourself a favor and buy a pack of .22 snap caps.
