A semi-auto firearm ejects the fired cartridge using some of the energy from that cartridge. A Snap-Cap is a dummy cartridge with no powder or primer, used to test the functioning of the feeding mechanism. It does not produce any energy when snapped, and will not be automatically ejected.
You can use a snap cap. You can purchase 5 snap caps from the Sportsmans Guide for $14.00. A snap cap is a plastic bullet case with out a primer or powder. It looks like a bullet in shape and has a spring that absorbs the strike of the firing pin. It is really great for dry fire practice.
Yes, the Hi-Point 9mm pistol does produce a click sound when you dry fire it, as this indicates that the firing mechanism has engaged without a round in the chamber. However, it's important to note that dry firing any firearm can potentially cause wear on the firing pin or other internal components, so it’s advisable to use snap caps or dummy rounds for practice whenever possible.
If not careful, a semi-automatic pistol could cut your hand from the slide either pinching you when closing or when it slides back to eject a shell. Keep your hand clear from the slide when firing.
Have it checkd by a good gunsmith before firing.
They are the same, but the word 9mm is shorter. I disagree: when you buy a gun that is 9mm it will be different bullets that you buy- 9mm, ironically, are longer. So yes, a 9mm is stronger. Please specify whether you mean the gun itself, or the round you intend to be firing.
Yes. Recommend using a snap cap.

Possible.
No. A 9mm Luger is a very loud round compared to the .22 long rifle. Most people are comfortable firing a .22LR without hearing protection. Firing a 9mm without hearing protection would quickly cause short term hearing damage. But as a warning, you should always use hearing protection when firing any firearm.
The distance a 9mm 115grain bullet can travel depends on factors such as the angle of firing, speed at which it was shot, and the surrounding environment. On average, a 9mm bullet can travel up to 1.5 to 2 miles in ideal conditions.
I have seen it done. It will fail to eject or fail to fire. Don't have a box of .380 present while shooting 9mm.
