AJ,
I think you are confusing double action and single action. Double action is when you simply pull the trigger. In this mode, the gun cocks itself and releases the hammer (thus double action) with a single long trigger pull. Typical DA trigger pulls on S&W guns are 6-8 lbs maybe. Single action is when you hand cock the hammer and then pull the trigger which releases the hammer (thus single action). Typical S&W SA trigger pulls are 2-3 lbs, but may seem even lighter because they are VERY CRISP with almost no movement of the trigger. S&W revolvers are legendary for their light, crisp SA trigger pulls.
