Default Blanks in a mosquito?
I just got a new bird dog, and I was wondering if it is ok to shoot blanks through my mosquito to get the dog use to bangs?

Yep! When we shot blanks in the Army, during training, we had to plug our barrels with a vented blank adapter. That way there was enough gas and back pressure to operate the system.
