Yes, it sure can. Keep in mind that the blow from the hammer has to be substantially heavier than what's actually required to ignite the primer. Doing so helps ensure you won't have a misfire due to the primer not being crushed properly, so a lighter blow than what the hammer normally delivers can still set it off. That being said, modern ammunition is pretty robust, and most modern firearms have mechanical means to avoid what most people see as the main concern with exposed hammers, that is, ignition from either striking the hammer, or the gun being dropped and landing on the hammer. Revolvers can have a transfer bar to isolate the hammer from the firing pin, such as used by Ruger. Smith and Wesson uses a rebounding hammer, which raises the hammer back up as the trigger's being released. Keep in mind that these two devices are more to address the concern of the hammer being struck as it lays on a live primer, rather than the specific case you brought up. Most self-loaders (semi-autos) have a floating firing pin, which, technically, is too short to transfer the force from the hammer directly to the primer. It works through inertia. The firing pin is lightly spring loaded against the rear of the slide. As the hammer is dropped by the trigger sear, it's forward momentum stricks the firing pin with enough force that it actaully overtravels, striking the primer. It's the same principle as using the cue ball of a pool table to send another ball into a pocket. This style probably has the greatest resistance to the issue you brought up.
The ar-15 uses this. you can't push the bolt forward manually, it goes forward with spring pressure. So, if it's dirty or doesn't close properly, they have an external "forward assist" that will bump it forward when you hit it.
Upon your loan being paid in full, the lender will issue a discharge of mortgage to you. They may forward you the original document which you would then file with the county/district registry of deeds. Or, they may just forward you confirmation that it has been filed on their behalf.
either your shift sensor is bad or the tranny is shot

The purpose of a motorcycle engine is to propel the motorcycle forward via the gas or diesel engine. The motor of the motor cycle makes it different from other two wheeled vehicles, in that it is self propelled, as opposed to manually powered.

Forward to myself
There is no slide release button on lc9. After the last round the slide locks back, to get the slide forward you have to pull back on it and release. The lc9 is not like many semi autos where the slide can be closed with a button. You have to manually pull the slide back.
The forms for the adjective forward are: positive: forward comparative: more forward superlative: most forward
Forward 1, right 90, forward 1, left 45, forward 2, left 45, forward 2, left 45, forward 2, left 45, forward 2, left 45, forward 2, left 45, forward 2, left 45, forward 2, left 45, forward 1 <===FreeLegs Chestnut (add me if you see me!)
You can say, 'I am looking forward to being there." or "I look forward to being there."
