I needed snap caps for my new RUGER LCP MAX 380 in order to dry fire and practice some manual at arms. I have some TRADITIONS SNAP CAPS in of calibers and they have always performed as designed. These 380 ACP SNAP CAPS are no different.
I purchased 2 packages of 5 caps each to load the 10 round magazine. I practiced using the mag loader with the caps and became familiar with the 10 round magazine. Inserting and extracting the magazine in a variety of round count and pistol presented some unexpected particularities.
I prefer the TRADITIONS design over the solid plastic or aluminum designs. The TRADITIONS design allow the firing pin some cushion on impact and the entire firing pin mechanism a controlled deceleration and then a natural rebound that is close to actual a live ammunition discharge cycle. The caps a reasonably durable.
I am always pleased with TRADITIONS products and OPTICS PLANET.

These snap caps are the 4th or 5th caliber of Traditions snap cap that I have purchased. I loaded 10 caps in the magazine for my new Ruger Lcp MAX 380. They ejected as expected when I retracted the slide. Each cap imprinted the firing pin clearly. I am pleased with the product and Optics Planet, as usual. My only whine is that it took weeks to receive the caps. But I'm OK, folks, no worries.
