Semiautomatic or semi-automatic
An automatic machine or device is able to operate independently of human control, and a "semi-automatic" version would or might require separate human control.
Pistols, rifles, and other weapons are termed "semi-automatic" if they fire only one round for each operation of the trigger. An automatic weapon, or one in automatic mode, will fire continuously as long as the trigger remains depressed, until the magazine is depleted.
