not like double action at all...

edit

>> it also incorporates a self-cocking or Striker Fired, which is close, but not the same as double action only firing mechanism, so that the pistol can be fired without delay or preparation.

this is misleading... striker fired pistols are more akin to single action pistols that are always cocked than they are a double action pistol, since with a double action pistol pulling the trigger makes the hammer drop every time but with striker fired pistols, like single action pistols, the action has to cycle completely for every trigger pull if you want anything to happen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.104.197.110 (talk) 05:26, 10 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Sigma striker failures

edit

I'm surprised there's no mention of early Sigma striker failures. I'll see what sources I can find, but I know it wasn't an isolated problem. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.186.127.140 (talk) 17:13, 21 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
