For the first shot, a single action auto, like the 1911A1 .45 auto, must have the hammer cocked manually. A double action auto, like the P38 can be fired by pulling the trigger without cocking the hammer. Trigger pull alone causes hammer to rise and fall.

What's the difference between Double action and Semi-automatic?
There are effectively three types of pistols. Automatic pistols (MAC-10), Semi-automatic pistols (Glocks, Luger, Sig), and revolvers.There are several types of actions (the mechanism by which shells are loaded into the chamber, the hammer is cocked and released). Single action and double action. There are variants and hybrids of the single and double action systems.A double action in a revolver rotates the cylinder bringing another chamber into alignment with the barrel and cocks the hammer. Generally the trigger pull in a double action requires significantly more force than in a single action.A single action in a revolver simply releases the hammer which causes the firing pin to strike the primer of the shell in the chamber, if there is no shell present a dry fire occurs.In a semi-automatic a double action both cocks and releases the hammer.In a semi-automatic a single action only releases the hammer, however when the round in the chamber is fired the hammer is cocked for the next round. Only the first round fired requires the hammer to be manually cocked.
