A-Zoom Precision Snap Caps 28 Gauge (2 Pack)

The A-Zoom shotgun snap caps are aluminum and seem quite durable. Although leaving aluminum against steel for extended periods is a little bit worrisome, but these are anodized aluminum and many modern shotgun chambers and barrel breech extensions are chromed. Many older ones are not and if the snap cap anodizing becomes nicked, scratched off in places it could react with the steel chamber and cause rust/corrosion spots. So if you do once a leap year gun maintenance, you may want the plastic variety snap caps. For those with chrome chambers, etc. and obsessive gun cleaning habits like myself, these A-Zooms may be the best and longest lasting.

I bought these for my new 28 gauge. Very well made. Not cheap plastic, as some snap caps are. The aluminum ones cost a little more, but they are worth it.

used them before no problem

I've fiddled around over the years with many different kinds of snap caps to help store my guns with trigger springs released and would warn anyone away from the plastic varieties as they will degrade and get stuck over time. Plastics are OK for temporary transport or the like, but these A-Zooms are the only one I trust for long term storage. They are simple the best!

Good to protect firing pins when dry firing.

Liked, exactly what I expected .

These are the best snap caps I've ever found; solid, well-fitting, long-lasting, available in most calibers and gauges.

The snap caps fit and appear to serve the function for which they are designed. They will be used in an o/u shotgun to cushion the firing pins when the piece is being stored for a long time. I can't evaluate if they actually help to prevent firing pin damage, but the shotgun manufacturer recommends that they be used.
