once you've removed the spur as shown in the OP's Post #1,
how would you be able to pull/get the gun into SA condition (i.e. "cocked") ever again?
You start the hammer back by pulling the trigger part way, then kind of hook your thumb over the top of the hammer and pull it on back to full cock.

Now when John Henry Fitzgerald was mutilating Colts by cutting out the triggerguard and cutting off the hammer spur, he checkered the top of the hammer to allow cocking.
