hi all. i have an ekarta and an xmag and was wondering if dry fireing either of them will cause a problem with the gun? both have x-valves and lvl 10's. not sure about it and dont wanna hurt them.

about the only thing you can"damage" by dry firing a mag is to blow the foamie off the end of the bolt.

Dry firing will wear the bolt spring just the same as if you are using it with paint. So, if you dry fire it 30000 times, replace the bolt spring before you use it on the field.
