Believe you can get these through Sinclair Intl.
I have this. It is stupid. The AR-15 is capable of being dry fired thousands upon thousands upon thousands of times with no I'll effect.
The ONLY benefit of the dry fire device is a shorter pull to reset the trigger.
If you are worried about "pain" for your center fire rifle during dry fire you are uninformed.
