Well, the Colt Single Action Army 1873 became famous for its owners carrying the revolver with an empty chamber under the hammer due to its hammer resting directly on the primer of the cartridge under the hammer

During carry if the chamber under the hammer was loaded with a live round there was a real possibility of the pistol firing if jostled or the hammer inadvertently struck.
