I don't understand why you'd be hesitant to put a couple of snap caps in the mag. That's what snap caps are made for. A number of folks (all of whom know considerably more about shooting and guns than I do) have all recommended that I practice with snap caps. I've got some, just haven't practiced with them yet.

As for the empty case, well, it doesn't sount "dangerous," but I'm also not sure how well it would work. Maybe someone who has done that can chime in on that.
