I use a 7 round mag when dry firing my PPS. I usually carry an 8 rnd magazine.
I have left one of my P99c magazines w/out a Talon Grip covering. That is my dry fire magazine.
My dry fire magazines stay on the kitchen counter and never go to where I keep my ammo.
Each magazine has a dedicated snap cap left in it, so I don't worry about moving the cap or being comfortable picking up a magazine for dry firing that doesn't have a snap cap already in it.

It's my system. I'm not sure where the weakness is, but it's not failed yet.

be safe.
