Default Pre-cocking a double action revolver

I was watching an old cop movie the other day and noticed that before sweeping a building for bad guys, the officers pre-cocked their revolvers. Was this really the way officers were trained, or is this just another Hollywood inaccuracy? If this depiction was accurate, were officers also trained to disengage their 1911 safeties before sweeping a building?
