Default Dry firing, ejectors, etc.

I am new to Parkers, just having acquired my first one, a 1923 VHE.

My question is, what is the proper protocol for dry-firing a gun with ejectors and disassembling it?

I'm assuming the gun can be dry-fired and then the forearm removed and the barrels separated from the receiver. Will this cause harm to the ejectors? What is the proper sequence? I was told to never " dry fire the ejectors," but I'm not clear on what this means. Do I need to invest in a set of snap caps?

Any and all clarification and advice most appreciated---and thanks in advance for your patience with a new guy.
