Mr. Ayoob (he has an account here) was saying earlier today that bobbed hammers are better for CCW, because of legal concerns.
Does anyone know why this is?

I don't think it had anything to do with ease of concealment, he was saying how a regular hammer could get you in legal trouble.You want a bobbed hammer on a revolver for concealed carry because a revolver hammer snags on clothing when you draw.
That thread is actually what inspired me to start this one.The reasons for that are discussed here.
Just to clarify, I was talking about double action revolvers.Double action is the way to go for practical reasons.
All you have to do is wedge your thumb under the hammer spur when you draw from a pocket.
