No, I wouldn't condone dry-firing as a normal routine practice either but I wouldn't dry-fire a hammer gun even once.
I am.
That hammer came out of the 32" DHE Fulford Trigger gun. The guy I got it from claimed he dry fired it, the right side sounded "funny", and then he couldn't open the gun. I got it as-is, and had to take the trigger plate off to see the problem, then a total disassembly. Rebounding or not, the hammer goes further forward than if there was a shell resisting it.
