There are several different types of handguns.
Single-Shot Pistol - pre-1840's design. Single ShotEarly guns were single-shot pistols that were loaded from the muzzle end. Black powder was poured into the barrel and the bullet forced on top of the powder. A Flintlock pistol was fired using a hammer that held a flint rock that fell against a Frizzen that created sparks. The hammer would force the frizzen away to expose the powder to the sparks. Revolver PistolThe Revolver was designed to allow the user to load 6 shots or more. The gun operates by rotating the cylinder containing the loaded rounds in individual Chambers. By pulling back the hammer (i.e. cocking the gun), the hammer moves a ratchet that rotates the Cylinder to a unfired chamber. This mechanism was copied from the windless of a ship. The gun is fired by pulling the trigger, thus releasing the hammer, allowing it to fall on the chamber to fire the bullet. Automatic PistolVery complicated mechanism. The gun has a slide mechanism that is pulled back and picks up a new bullet from the magazine in the grip of the gun. When the slide returned, it would cock the gun so that it would fire when the trigger is pulled.

How do hammer less semiautomatic handguns work?
