Dry firing should be a daily exercise. I recommend A-Zoom caps as they can be used for various activities.

Good Luck:

yep, dryfire as much as you can. To liven things up, I've been using the animated drills on www.mattburkett.com, but better make sure your gun is UNLOADED!

I dry fire often but do use snap caps when I do.

no need for snap caps, the firing pin is internally dampened

Instructor (who owns a XD SC) said to dry fire a a good bit to work on basics and to make drawing, holding, and aiming a muscle memory thing.

He did suggest making a bit of a ritual of the begining and the ending of the exercize to avoid an unintended discharge.
