the single action is a far better design in my oppinion as you can adjust the cone for the amount of paint you want to come out and you have a few different tips you can switch with
the double action has a fine needle you have to worry about bending the trigger usually wears out as you have to always pull back for the amount of paint you want to come out so the needle and trigger are always moving back and forth causing wear on both i had my one Paashe H for over 20 years
