A semi-automatic pistol is a type of pistol that is semiautomatic, that is it uses the energy of the fired cartridge to cycle the action of the firearm and advance the next available cartridge into position for firing. One round is fired each time the trigger of a semi-automatic pistol is pulled.
Additional terms sometimes used as synonyms for a semi-automatic pistol are automatic pistol, self-loading pistol, autopistol, and autoloading pistol.
A semi-automatic pistol harnesses the energy of one shot to reload the chamber for the next. After a round is fired, the spent casing is ejected and a new round from the magazine is loaded into the chamber, allowing another shot to be fired as soon as the trigger is pulled again. Most pistols use recoil operation to do this, but some pistols use blowback or gas operation.
Most types of semi-automatic pistols rely on a removable magazine to store ammunition before it is fired, usually inserted inside the grip.
Typically, the first round is manually loaded into the chamber by pulling back and releasing the slide mechanism. This is called racking the slide or racking the gun. After the trigger is pulled and the round is fired, the recoil operation of the handgun automatically extracts and ejects the shell casing and reloads the chamber. This mode of operation generally allows for faster reloading and storing a larger number of cartridges than a revolver.

FOR MORE INFO: http://www.gunblast.com/Taurus-Curve.htm Jeff Quinn ( http://www.gunblast.com ) tests the Taurus Curve 380 ACP Semi-Automatic Pocket Pistol. The Taurus Curve, aside from the smooth, curved profile, is still a dandy little pocket 380 autoloader. The curvature of the pistol, along with its relatively light weight, makes the Curve delightful to carry for a right-handed shooter. The suggested retail price of the Curve is $392 US as of the date of this review, which is very competitive, especially considering that the Curve has both a light and a laser. It is a compact, reliable, and handy little pocket gun, and is made in the USA.

Two police officers pursued the suspects and after one of the suspects presented a semi-automatic pistol to police – he was shot and killed. The suspect was told to drop his gun, but didn’t comply, leading to the officer firing several times, hitting the man twice, once in the chest and once in the arm. The officer involved was wearing a body camera during the incident. In mere hours after the shooting, a group of approximat...
Melee Weapon Damage Test Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTNSezlEKWo Important - The metal face mask never seems to guarantee a head shot. It appears to have a chance to significantly reduce damage or allowing all of the damage through. Use this guide with that in mind. Bullet damage can vary. I was using the metal face mask as head protection and the metal chest plate as body armor. Incendiary ammunition seems to deal the most damage and has the possibility to set fire to wherever the bullet drops, potentially increasing damage.
