Iris Shawcroft: I don't like the question because it is "tricky." Choice C is a technically correct answer while Choice A is a correct answer conventionally. The term single-action handgun is conventionally applied to single-action revolvers.

Karey Dunken: out of the possible choices, i would say letter C because when you pull the hammer back, it gets rid of some of the lbs on the trigger pull.EDITit can't be (A) because pistols can be single action, it can't be (B) because revolvers aren't semi-automatic, and it can't be (D) because a single action handgun can have more than one round....Show more
Glynda Darrin: Single action means that it ! has to be manually c.ocked for each round to fire. Based on your choices, I would choose choice A.
