This has always intrigued me. The bit about the empty chamber and all oldtimers done it. Smart and safe, yes! Acepted as gospel a hundred and thirty years ago? I doubt it. I dont know how many times I have read of dug ups and old single action colts being found fully loaded. I wish some guru here would say when colt first advertised or warned to load only 5 with a empty under the hammer. I still remember when ruger did. Anyone here claim to know?
