Your guns and your choices. I would never chop a trigger guard myself. But, the idea that bobbing a hammer makes it lose striking force is incorrect. The lighter hammer is moved faster by the hammer spring. Energy is mass X Velocity squared. The increased speed of the lightened hammer makes up for the loss of weight. You would have to make the hammer extremely light to cause its weight to be the reason for failure to fire.

Witness all the skeletonized hammers now available on 1911s.

Plus, quess what is inside a shrouded model S&W. Pretty much the same hammer as a regular one, just no spur.
