Double Action Only (DAO) Pistol
The DAO/DAK differs from the standard pistol in several ways:
FIRST, there’s no single action position for the hammer. It returns to a decocked
position after each trigger pull, so it can be fired only in double action mode.
SECOND, because it’s double action only, there’s only one trigger pull to learn.
THIRD, because the hammer returns to a decocked position after each shot,
there’s no need for a decocking lever.
In all other respects, the DAO/DAK is identical in design and function. In this
manual, whenever there’s an instruction or information that doesn’t apply to the
DAO/DAK, we’ll note it.
Note: For a description of various trigger systems, see Appendix B.
