Hi Kelven, I'm not sure why they put "only" on listing. It is a "double action" firearm SPECS-- Glock 19 semi-automatic compact handgun 9mm caliber --- 4.02" barrel --- 10 +1 capacity --- Double-action --- Trigger, firing pin & drop safety --- Scratch- & corrosion-resistant --- Non-glare finish --- Polymer frame & grips --- Cold-hammered, Tenifer-coated barrel --- Loaded chamber indicator --- Adjustable sights --- 5.5 lbs. trigger pull --- 9.84" length of twist --- 6.85" overall length --- 5" tall --- 1.18" wide --- 1.26" barrel height --- 6.02" line of sight --- 20.99 oz. empty --- 29.98 oz. loaded --- Olive drab finish

This design requires a trigger pull to both coc k and trip the hammer/striker for every single shot, unlike a DA/SA, which only requires a double-action trigger pull for the first shot (or a typical DA/SA revolver, which can fire single action any time the user wishes, but uses double-action as a default).

Kelven, the listing is in error. This is a "Striker Fired" "Double Action" pistol and not a "Double Action Only" Pistol.

Its a striker fired gun its like every other glock the trigger pull retracts the firing pin and releases it to strike the primer (IE double action) some strike fired guns the firing is is already back (under spring tension) and the trigger pull just releases it to go forward to strike the firing pin then the action of the slide pulls the firing pin back into the under tension ready position
