Just took a quick look through the manual for my Elsie. I didn't find anywhere mentioning "dry firing" either yes, or no. I guess if they don't specifically warn against it. I also remember reading somewhere that extensive dry firing could cause damage. That is possible just internet opinion however.
Just checked the Ruger website FAQ page: http://www.ruger.com/service/FAQs.html

Can I dry fire my Ruger P-Series and .22 pistols?
Yes. All Ruger pistols can be dry fired without damage, and dry firing can be useful to familiarize the owner with the firearm. However, be sure any firearm is completely unloaded before dry firing!

that's interesting, the manual for my SR9c says not to dry fire it because the mag disconnect can get damaged. I yanked mine out so now I have no problem dry firing
