Well, I'm going to sit on the fence. I have broken a firing pin on a Model 13 while dry firing, I don't necessarily think it broke because of dry firing. On the other side, I have broken a firing pin on a Rossi Overland shotgun, that may have been because of dry firing, it was a new gun. It went "tink" off my TV's screen.
