Have you ruined a handgun in such a manner..

A Colt Python? Firearms blasphemy!!!!!!

Yea, I cringe.......On any collectable firearm......I guess it's one thing if you can put it back stock. I put a trigger stop in a 629. But I replaced the trigger with a after market and saved the original. Put a screw in the trigger because the frame didn't have the cut out for the stop

If I want a handgun without a hammer spur I buy a gun without a hammer spur. To provide a scenario where a hammer would be useful to me is if I hear a noise I will cock the hammer for the quick and crisp first shot. If I can't hit my target with the first **** then I go buy a gun that holds 18 rounds or I visit the range more often. No disrespect for those who don't feel the way I don't please understand this! 😁

As for the question in the OP question, absolutely not and will never!

I won't say never, that's a long time. But I haven't yet. At least that I can remember. And I do like a good weapon

I have bobbed a hammer or two over the years. Don't think I would do it to a Smith or Ruger. But the RG 38 and the Charter Off Duty I bobbed both worked out fine. It would be cool to do it to a 6 round gun like the Model 10 or even an RIA M200. Thought about doing it to my M206 but it's too new and nice ( for an RIA) to go grinding on.

Heck, even some of those you just mentioned are becoming collectable.....

I carry a 360pd in my pocket all the time, never had an issue with the hammer, when I draw it I just cover the hammer with my thumb and sweep it out of the way once it’s clear of the pocket.

I come out at a little different angle out of the pocket. Works for me, I'm sure not everybody

Whatever works.....I know most would prefer hammerless

I know, the Model 38 has been one I just never shoot. The 638 popped up on here a couple months ago and now, here it is. Both are single action capable, no problems there. And pocket carry just fine.

If that was my only choice, I'd pick the one on the bottom. I had a uncle that one of those back in the day

I have ruined my model 60 and have a spare hammer to ruin my 3” 65.
