I recent acquired a No2 Mk IV* to add to my LE collection. I am aware that dry firing can peen the chamber and damage the firing pin on .22 rifles. My question is two fold: Is the No2 rifle prone to damage upon dry firing and, if so, how do you store the rifle once you have cleared it? Do you just leave the bolt open? De-cocking/easing springs would seem to be difficult without accidentally dry firing?
