I wouldn't say never, I'd say rarely. There were wannabe rambos even back then(though they obviously wouldn't be called rambos) who carried their revolvers fully loaded resting on a live round.
This thread truly boils down to preference. There are advantages to both. I choose 1911 because I trust Browning's designs and like the weapon. I would gladly carry a revolver as a BUG.(Though not a DAO because I can't stand firing double action)
