Its an AK.... not an AR. And the pistol isn't a Glock or a 1911.

S&W .38 Double Action 2nd Model which was made from 1880-1884 and chambered in .38 Smith & Wesson. It was refinished at some point in its life and it was done very well. The Nickel is smooth and sharp.

I'd imagine double action would have been quite revolutionary in those days.

By then not so much. Colt, S&W, Webley, and other had Double Actions. Even during the War between the States. Some Double Action Revolvers existed.

In general though, effectively having a semi auto must of been an advantage in the stress of a gun fight, as opposed to having to remember to cock your pistol each time.

I believe you're confused. Semiautomatics can be singe action too. 1911 and Hi-Power for example. There were even Automatic Revolvers. The Webley Fosbery was.

It was a single action automatic revolver. You cocked the hammer once and fired. After that the recoil drove the top half of the revolver back and actually turned the cylinder and cocked the hammer. It was on paper, the same as a 1911. .45 caiber automatic pistol.

But a double action revolver like the Starr Revolver was used back in the Us Civil War. It was a Precussion Capped .44 Black Powder gun. Loaded it upx and pull the trigger until empty.

The problem with a lot of them back then was the lock work was fragile and the triggers were long and heavy.

Colt had the 1877 Lightning and 1878 Thunderer. Adams had a design out and Gen. George Armstrong Custer of the 7th Cavalry (Battle of Little Bighorn fame) owned one and it is believed he used during the battle.
