That's an old solution to a problem that was fixed a long time ago. Revolvers have transfer bars these days and should not fire if the hammer is struck while over a live round.

Makes firing one much more complicated. A Glock basically works like a revolver. Pull trigger = Bang! Simple and reliable. Leaving the chamber empty would be like leaving the second chamber empty on a revolver so you would have to pull the trigger 2x in order to fire. Doesn't make a lot of sense.
