A single-action revolver can be fired rapidly by relatively unskilled shooters and by shooters with limited manual dexterity. The revolver contains a hammer-cocking assembly having a reciprocating cylinder-actuating rod with a proximate end that passes rearwardly through the respective longitudinal bores of the frame and cylinder to contact the hammer and with a distal end that extends forwardly along the barrel. A shooter can easily fire the revolver rapidly by first moving the cylinder-actuating rod with one hand to cock the hammer and rotate the cylinder, and by then pulling the trigger with another hand to release the hammer and fire the revolver.
