Please define....that's a new one on me.
Jeff Cooper dubbed double-action/single-action autos “crunchentickers” because the first double-action shot is a crunch and the follow-up single-action shots are ticks. Faced with this kind of mechanical derangement, the shooter usually tosses his first shot somewhere out in left field, notwithstanding the fact that, as Max Joseph often says, It’s the first shot that counts.
