On my model 10 is has the pin fixed on the hammer so I carry on an empty cylinder. In reality it still has a safety mechanism that would prevent it from going off if you hit the hammer, but I do it anyway.
Makes me wonder...
Can an old model 36 be carried safely with all rounds in it? (This has the fixed (bit wiggly) pin on the hammer)
How about a Taurus model 605? Looking into getting one or the other.
Sorry for the partial jack.
And for the OP question. One n the chamber safty on. Unless going into a "red zone".
I'm sure I can sweep the safety off with one hand way quicker than racking the slide with 2.
