In the US, the general answer would be no. A captive bolt gun (commonly called a stunner or humane killer) cannot fire a projectile, and as such, fails to meet the definition of a firearm. (bolt may be driven by a powder charge, but being captive can only move a short distance) In a like manner, powder actuated tools, such as a Hilti Gun or Ramset, used to drive fasteners through wood, metal, etc into concrete are designed to prevent a projectile being fired. They may be regulated in other ways (OSHA has specific requirements for these) I am unable to comment on laws in other nations such as the UK, Canada, or Australia.
That would be the trigger on most firearms, the slide on an automatic pistol, and the hammer on either an automatic pistol or a revolver. You also pull back the bolt on a rifle, and sometime the cocking mechanism on a shotgun.
Humanely with a rifle or captive bolt.
In firearms such as the AR 15, the bolt rides in a part known as the bolt carrier.
Captive Bolt Gun
A captive bolt gun is a device for stunning livestock prior to slaughter. The gun has a rod (the bolt) that is attached so that it can move, but not leave the gun (captive) t is placed against the forehead of the animal and triggered. The animal is instantly rendered unconscious, and may be humanely slaughtered.

Best to get a gunsmith to help you.
No
With an unloaded weapon, safety off, open the bolt draw to rear, press and hold trigger, and try to remove bolt. If that does not work, see a gunsmith.
