DD... anything with a real hammer is safe to de-cock in the manner prescribed.... so long as you maintain control of the hammer and don't let it slip forward too fast. Doesn't matter if the gun has a transfer bar or not. ( I was under the impression that most semi-modern shotguns with a hammer had an inertia ( "rebounding") hammer anyway. ( the hammer "rests" a way from the firing pin ))
Anyway... if you have control of the hammer, you have control of the firing sequence. It can't go "boom" without sufficient energy to the firing pin.
This does not apply to "coach guns" with "fake" cocking hammers though. ( Don't you just love it when gun designers make life complicated? )
