OK, this is a word problem: Define "Triple Action" and for bonus points, name a gun it can be found on.

Daewoo DP-51 South Korea service pistol

“Triple action” means that other than traditional double or single action fire modes it has “fast action” mode, apparently borrowed from FN’s GP “Fast Action” pistol. In this mode hammer is cocked by the cycle of the slide, then it is pushed forward by the pressure on the hammer head. In this position, the main spring remains cocked, so only light pressure on the trigger is necessary to recock the hammer and fire the gun in the “double action manner”.

I think the internet trumps word problems :)

Or, alternatively, hammer can be recocked manually to be fired in single action for maximum first-shot accuracy.

Speaking of triggers - I need some help putting my Mossberg 500 trigger back together. There's some crazy springloaded stuff in there!

Technically it's a trigger assembly/group, smart guy, but can you tell me to what? :P


I can't help with the 500, sorry. One of these days I'll be able to.

So, just a guess based on a quick google search - M1 Garand?

Close enough. It's from an M14, but looking at the two side by side, they're closer than I previously thought.

Since DK didn't post, here's something to guess. Should be easy to figure out.

Cantilever sight mount??
Be particular, and be vigilant, as the enemy will only attack on two occasions:
When you're ready or when you're not ready.

Also never forget, that everyone who shows up, is not necessarily there to help.

Nope. Cody and Eliot, you are both incorrect. Actual size is close to the photo, maybe a little smaller.
