M14 dry fire exercises.

ON dry firing my M1A should I remove the firing pin? Plan to do alot of practicing during the winter months. Just asking.

Have never removed any of mine including those used in the USMC where dry firing was a requirement for M14 users. Whatta Hobby!

kj47, if you're concerned about dry firing on an empty chamber, a few snap caps are a cheap remedy and help with reloading drills and stuff. My military experience is the same as nf1e, in the army we dry fired on empty chambers.
