it doesn't break if you dry fire it per the instruction manual....as long as you dry fire it w/ an EMPTY magazine you're fine. the p345 has that damn magazine disconnect safety. so what happens is you pull the trigger w/ the magazine out to dry fire and it hits some bar or something...do it enough times and when its loaded it doesn't go bang...i know i'm one of the people that had it happen. just got it back from ruger. free repair, and i don't know if i was supposed to but they sent me a magazine back w/ the gun :-D now i have 6. its a great gun i carry mine all the time i prefer it to my XD just b/c its easier to conceal on my small frame.
if he plans to do IDPA tell him to bring his instruction manual since they make you dry fire w/o a magazine in place to make sure the weapon is 100% safe...thats how my p345 messed up
oh and a snap cap will not help btw...like i said its all b/c of the magazine safety disconnect not allowing it to fire w/o a magazine in the gun. there's a way to get rid of that if i remember reading correctly somewhere the spring for the safety is under the rear sight. when you take off the rear sight be careful i'll fly out @ you..or so i read
