Semi-automatic handgun
handgun
拳銃 ハンドガン ピストル オートマチックピストル マシンピストル pistol
A short-barrelled firearm designed to be used with one hand or two hands and for short-ranged targets. Its ammunition feeding mechanism may vary by design, such as muzzle-loading earlier handguns, break action, by using clips or more commonly magazines.
Handgun types include modern semi-automatic pistols, revolvers, antique firearms such as flintlocks and derringers. This tag also covers the "machine pistol", a handgun capable of fully automatic fire (e.g. Beretta 93R).
The term "pistol" refers to handguns with a single, stationary (non-revolving) chamber.
For the hand gesture imitating a gun, use finger gun instead.
