Legality of Snap Caps

[u/VladimirMakarov141]

Thinking about buying some Snap Caps for a few firearms that my family members own. Was wondering whether or not I needed a license to purchase them or if I could just walk in and buy them off the shelf.

Further, what exactly is the legality behind Snap Caps? Are the treated the same as live munitions or are the classified under something else?

Snap caps legally require absolutely nothing to buy. You could just 3d print your own snapcaps, they're not ammunition.
