    Ok, it is after yoga and I am cooking dinner at home. Had time to look up those pinpoints cites for you guys.

    Here is Dr. Ezell's definition of double action:

    "[D]ouble-action, a revolver that can be operated as either single-action or self-cocking according to need." Edward C. Ezell, HANDGUNS OF THE WORLD 24 (1981).

    Dr. Ezell was a genius as to firearms but I readily understand that his definition has become the minority position given the flood of advertising and common use at the range or in the gun rags.

    Thanks you for taking the time to answer my question, good luck with finding the answer to your question about your model 64.
