Default Good Dry-Fire Training Idea

I can't get to my range as much as I'd like, so I have some IPSC targets stapled to the wall in my apt in various locations so I can atleast work draw stroke and all that stuff. I had the idea to take the followers out of my "training" Glock mags so I could rack the slide after inserting a new mag, while practicing reloads. Now I can actually practice better since I can rack the slide as hard as I do when I'm shooting and it won't lock back.

Just an idea if any of you practice in your home. Remember to put the followers back in your mags when you're done.

i'm still waiting for someone to invent a way to simulate recoil while dry firing...

I believe they also sell weighted training mags which are approximately the weight of a loaded magazine.
