Generally speaking, a single action gun is a gun that has to be cocked before it can be fired. The term "single action" comes from the fact that the trigger only has a single function; it drops the hammer to fire the gun. A good example of a single action handgun is a 1911 style or a Browning Hi-Power. Also, the old style "cowboy" revolvers are single action.
