The sound of a rifle firing is often described as a "gunshot" or a "bang." It is a loud, sharp noise created by the explosion of gunpowder inside the rifle's chamber propelling the bullet out of the barrel.
Is it okay to dryfire an air rifle?
If you are asking about a "springer firing system" The answer is NO do not dryfire it. When you shoot a single cock springer rifle or gun with a pellet in the chamber, there is a moment where the piston actually slows down just before the pellet is fired down the barrel. If you have no pellet in the chamber the piston slams against the end of the chamber and this will eventually ruin the chamber. Dry firing a Co2 gun will not hurt it. You will just waist Co2.
What is the difference between .223 cal and 5.56 mm?

Can you shoot 308 ammo in a 7.62x51 rifle?
Possibly. The commercial .308 Winchester generates higher chamber pressures than military 7.62x51 does, and this may not be advisable practice for all 7.61x51 rifles. If in doubt, inquire with the manufacturer of the rifle before using commercial .308 ammunition.
Is it possible for the m16 rifle to fire while on safe?
Possible? yes. Likely? No. In order to fire while on safe, either parts in the fire control mechanism would have to be broken, or, if the rifle has been fired at a high rate of fire, the chamber is extremely hot, it is possible for a cartridge to 'cook off"- to be fired from the heat of the chamber- no firing pin strike. This would occur within seconds of chambering a cartridge in an extremely hot weapon. Due to the "floating firing pin" the use of very soft primers (non-milspec) COULD result in a slamfire- rifle fires when bolt is allowed to slam forward, chambering a round and immediately firing it.
Are 223 and 5.56 interchangeable?
