Default Snap caps?

I just went through an ordeal where I got a pair of snap caps stuck in a Fox gun and couldn't get the gun open nor the barrels off. I finally did get it open; whew! A member on the Fox forum (who's a member here also) pointed out that snap caps are unnecessary in a Fox gun, with Fox literature to back it up. For me they've always just been another fun thing about messing about with these old guns, but I'm certainly re-thinking that at this point! So what about Parkers? Snap caps or no?
