I find that the single action points like your finger points. Unless you have tons of practice with a DA, you will not have that advantage. In my opinion the first shot will be much faster and more accurate when done with speed. Second shot depends on the shooter and his experience with the weapon he is carrying. Because of my experience with the single action, maybe 400,000 rounds, I feel that I can get off the second shot as fast as I can with the DA and more accurately, but it is a matter of practice and experience. With no experience, I would probably carry the double action. My opinion only of course, Hank.
