This video clarifies the historical evolution and modern understanding of 'single action,' 'double action,' and 'triple action' firearm terminology, primarily focusing on revolvers. It explains that single action means the trigger performs only one function (releasing the hammer), while double action means the trigger performs two functions (cocking and releasing the hammer). The concept of 'triple action' is discussed as the ability to perform both, though its usage has largely been superseded by the combined understanding of single and double action capabilities.
