This is a handgun, either revolver or automatic, which requires manual cocking of the hammer to fire the gun. Examples include the Colt Single Action Army (the classic cowboy gun) for revolvers and the Model 1911 for automatics.

A double action pistol will cock the hammer and fire the gun simply by pulling the trigger.
