In several scenes, Bond is seen approaching what he believes to be a dangerous location, taking out his pistol and manually loading the chamber by sliding it back. This suggests that Bond carries his pistol without the chamber loaded. As noted above by another viewer, there would be no need to do this, since the PPK is a double action pistol, i.e. it can be carried safely with a round in the chamber. In addition, it is highly unlikely that a trained assassin would carry his pistol in that manner, since getting the pistol ready for combat would involve making a very large noise (as we see in the movie), and it would delay and complicate the response to any sudden attack, especially since the action requires two free hands.
