What is the Difference between a Double Action and a Single Action Pistol?
A typical single action pistol or revolver requires that the hammer be manually cocked. In the case of an autoloading pistol, such as the 1911AI .45, the hammer must be cocked before firing the first shot. With a single action revolver, such as the Colt Peacemaker, the hammer must be cocked before each shot. A double action handgun does not require manual cocking of the hammer- you pull the trigger, and the hammer rises and falls. An example would be the Smith & Wesson Model 10 .38 Special. The hammer may ALSO be cocked manually before a shot. Some handguns are DAO- double Action Only- the hammer may not be cocked manually- they are fired by pulling the trigger, which will cause the hammer to rise and fall.
Why do they call some guns a single shot revolver?
"Single shot revolver" refers to the Savage 101 target pistol. This gun looks like a slightly smaller version of a Colt Single Action Army (Peacemaker) revolver. It does not, however, have a revolving cylinder. What looks like the cylinder is a swinging chamber block with a single chamber in it, making it, in fact, single shot. These guns are not very common because the oddball design did not sell very well.
What is a main difference between a single action revolver and a double action revolver?
The main difference between a single action revolver and a double action revolver lies in the mechanism of firing. In a single action revolver, the shooter must manually cock the hammer before each shot, which also rotates the cylinder to align the next round. In contrast, a double action revolver allows the shooter to either pull the trigger to both cock the hammer and release it, or manually cock the hammer for a lighter trigger pull. This makes double action revolvers generally faster to fire in succession.
