Does anyone make/sell something like a snap cap cone to dry fire a revolver?

On a properly set up revolver the hammer never touches the nipple: there is just enough clearance to detonate the cap.

while that is indeed the ideal, most of the revolvers folks have do not meet the expectation

To the question at hand....I just use percussion caps. Get a fun bang and you are not messing up your nipples. (when we were kids my dad used to play quickdraw with me and my brother using his revolvers loaded with just percussion caps, fun times, probably not the dad of the year but we were having a blast) :D

It's simple to do: you file each cone one at a time to achieve proper clearance.
