Semi-Automatic Pistols

Semi-automatic pistols are firearms designed to fire one bullet each time the trigger is pulled, then automatically reloads the next round from a magazine. They operate using the force of the fired cartridge to cycle internal components, ejecting the spent shell and chambering a new round without manual action. This allows for faster, more efficient shooting compared to single-shot firearms. Semi-automatic pistols are widely used for self-defense, law enforcement, and sport shooting due to their reliability, ease of use, and capacity to fire multiple rounds quickly.
