Dry firing a rimfire

I am pretty sure it is a real person the on topic is too close a match for a bot to do I would have thought. Although the copy and paste is still very bot like. There have been posts removed when they were not so close to on topic. I think the identity should be blocked as I am with Blade and think clicking on any link would be very dangerous to your computer or you are making everything on your computer available to the identity

Just don't click on the links until you have verified the URL, blocking this user doesn't make anything 'safer'.
If they are using a URL shortener like in the previous post, use something like the below site to expand on it to check the real URL behind it:

I mean the moderators, admin blocking the user. They will have several options IP blocking username blocking ect deleting the user is not always the best action as they can just re-register.

I doubt they have many methods to block someone. IP blocking wont work as most ISPs use dynamic IP addresses for internet subscriptions. Also by simply using a VPN they can get back to the site via any number of different IPs.

If you are worried about malicious links, educate yourself about online safety and what you can do to not get caught out. Anyone can post a malicious link, not just this one user. Gone well off topic, I wont post anymore about this here.

This is one of the Lithgow bolt and chambers from a club rifles that are about 2 years old. They might get dry fired 20-30 times a day.

Best example I've ever seen to illustrate why repeated dry firing 22LR is not such a bright idea.
Thanks for posting.

Never intentionally dry fired a rimfire. Center fires all the time.

Was coming around to the idea of dry firing the rimfire but not after seeing the Lithgow photos.

Thanks james13

Even dry firing a cf isn’t the brightest idea. Be kind to your bolt and just use a snap cap!
