The LC380 is a hammer-fired pistol with a double-action-only trigger.
The pistol's appearance can be deceiving because the hammer is recessed so that it never sticks out from the back of the slide. If you look at the back of the slide, you can see whether the hammer is not cocked or partially cocked.
The trigger action is a bit confusing because the hammer is partially cocked when the slide is racked and pulling the trigger finishes cocking the hammer and then releases the hammer. If the hammer is not partially cocked, the hammer does not have restrike capability to fully cock the hammer and fire the gun.
Attached are pages 7 and 17 of the
LC380 Manual that show the operating features described above.
