Steel Safety Practice Rounds Action Trainer Dummy Round Dry Fire Training Snap Cap

This is one of those occasional purchases that has made me really happy.The snap caps are great, but what truly amazed me was the customer service. In every way, this was a great purchase.The product is excellent. These dummy rounds [snap caps] are made of steel: I checked with a magnet. They are dimensionally correct. I have never before seen snap caps like these, with their replaceable rubber head pads. It seems like an excellent design, which should provide great protection for the vulnerable firing pins of rimfire firearms. The rubber pads are replaceable, so the snap caps should last forever; and, if they don’t, you can get more pads. I have always used A-Zooms. Those are great, but you cannot replace the little pad in the center of the “cartridge” head. With the Bayattoo snap caps, you can. You can also rotate them, so that the firing pin keeps striking different sections of the pads.There was one small problem: The product information states that the box “provides additional 10pcs spare pads.” Well, my package did not include the spare pads. The box did, however, include a card which stated: “If you unfortunately receive any items that couldn’t meet your expectation, please kindly give us an opportunity to correct the issue. We will do our best to resolve the issue till you are satisfied.” Well, their “best” is truly outstanding. I emailed them at 7:26 pm on a Sunday. I got a response at 7:59 pm. THIRTY-THREE MINUTES LATER. Their representative was as charming as is the English of the guarantee. The rep gave her name as Candy…I am mentioning her name because I want her boss to notice, and promote her…and she wrote that she had already submitted an order. In the Amazon product information, they promised ten spare pads. Candy sent me FORTY.We had further correspondence, because she wanted to provide me with the tracking number and to keep me updated. In all of her correspondence, she was the perfect customer service rep: knowledgeable, wishing to provide excellent service, and doing everything perfectly.I received the spare pads within four days of requesting them. Technically, three days, since I wrote on a Sunday evening, although that was probably a Monday morning for Candy. Anyhow, the whole thing was a pleasure. And, I think it’s unlikely that you will find the spare pads to be missing. Candy wrote “I appreciate that you contacted us to give us the opportunity to correct the issue you met.” That seems to be the attitude of this company, treating my little complaint as an opportunity to improve.They do continually suggest that you write a review. Hey, I don’t mind. I am very much motivated to write this.I am impressed. If you order these dummy rounds/snap caps, I think that you will be, too.

Using it while paired with MantisX and has been a game-changer for building muscle memory and safely getting comfortable with firearm mechanics, all without the cost of range fees or live ammo cost. Over 2 week peroid, I’ve logged nearly 400 dry-fire reps so far, and I’m genuinely impressed. Highly recommend!

Feel and function like actual ammo

Good heft, gives an accurate feel of a full magazine for training purposes. They feed well, and handle multiple pin impacts. Worth it!

Good product but damaged on arrival in carrying case

I received my snap caps (380 acp) in the older tin container. The container was bent and dented during shipping, but the Snap Caps were fine and worked well in my pistol. I also purchased 9mm snap caps which came in the plastic container and were fine. I made a quick comment to the seller about the dented container not expecting any response. Surprisingly, Candy of Customer Service responded that they would send me two replacement containers and later on the foam inserts. They arrived as promised...Great Customer Service! Told my friends about this seller and they also made purchases.

These snap-caps work well and weigh the same as regular rounds which is nice.

The weight of these 22lr snap caps closely match live rounds and the idea of a rubber patch to protect the firing pin during dry fire seemed like a great concept. However when I tried using them in my Walther PPQ M2 22lr, the tapered front of the round and the rubber back end caused continuous fail to chamber, double feeds, fail to eject, & magazine jams. If I continued to try using them, I'm sure it would damage my firearm. So that being the case I'm returning them immediately.Update #1:I've been impressed by this company's willingness to reach out to me regarding my dis-satisfaction with their product. Apparently they have a redesigned product that will properly work in my firearm. I'll post a further update after I try them out.Things that separates companies are their belief in their product and that they go out of their way to assure customer satisfaction! This organization has done both!Update #2 - 6/5/24Just received the redesigned version of these snap caps. The tips are more rounded than the originals and the primer end rubber protection is thinner as well. Because of these changes, the snap caps worked perfectly with my Walther PPQ M2 - not a single jam, double feed, or stove pipe after cycling through 4 mags of 10 rounds each. I'm very pleased with this redesign as I can now do my dry fire practices with confidence.The other aspect that I'm grateful for is this company stands behind there product and they value customer satisfaction. Recognizing a problem they offered a solution. Their Customer Service rep not only reached out to me after my initial review but then followed up every step of the way with multiple messages explaining the process to receive the redesigned version, notifying of shipment, and then tracking/reporting the shipment status until delivery. That is definitely outstanding customer service and I highly recommend their company and their products!
