Single- and double-action revolvers (Patreon)

Single- and double-action revolvers

What are 'single-action' and 'double-action' triggers? Here I essay to make all of this clear. Why don't they 'fan' revolvers in WW2 movies? Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Lindybeige All the pistols (which are revolvers) shown were loaned to me by Mike from 'Bloke on the Range' (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9k2WzcJ1kUMl4KIwNQwrFA). In cowboy movies, you often see a deadly hail of fire launched by a her who 'fans' the cocking lever of his pistol, waving his hand over it as if to cool it. You don't see the same in WW2 movies, though. There is a sound reason for this, and for once this is something that Hollywood actually gets right.
