But in a striker fired pistol there is no hammer so there isn't a "hammer down situation".

Yes ... Because of the hammer down situation, as the way it was explained to me many years ago.

Went researching... https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/strik ... ne-better/
Some striker fired guns are single action: the cycling of the slide fully cocks the striker and the trigger serves only to release it. Others are double action: the trigger pull fully cocks or finishes cocking the striker, then releases it.
