We see it all the time in westerns-Clint Eastwood, opens his pancho, pulls his pistol and pulls the trigger multiple times: killiing five guys on a fence without cocking the gun for the first or subsequent shots. The action of pulling the trigger cocks the gun. Of course you could c.o.c.k. the gun then pull the trigger a little easier if you've got the time (say you only need to kill four guys sitting on a fence).

Don't they do that thingie with their hand like in the old westerns....for super duper fast gunslinger type firing? (yes, I'm hopeless about guns)

Didn't Powell have the wrong calibre bullets in his gun?

That "Thingie" that they do in old westerns, to cause rapid fire from a single action pistol, is called "Fanning".
