I dry fire my M41 often with dry wall anchor as I haven't taken the time to see if the bullseyesmith that worked on my pistol set up the firing pin to not hit the chamber. He probably did due to being a former Marine Corps target team armorer when the misguided children used M41s for competition shooting.
My other 22s (Ruger MKIII, Nelson Conversion, FWB AW93) are all safe to dry fire due to limited firing pin reach.
In target shooting competition if you haven't broken a firing pin or (on a 1911) a firing pin stop you are not dry firing enough in training. These are considered consumable parts.
