This should explain it:

Double Action Airbrushes
Pressing down on the button activates the amount of air flow and pulling
back determines the amount of fluid released. This allows the user to change
the width of line, the range of value, and the opaqueness of color with one
hand.

Single Action Airbrushes

Unlike the double action where air and fluid controls are combined, these
same controls are independent of each other with the single action airbrush.
While one hand is releasing a pre-set amount of air by pressing down on the
button, the other hand adjusts a separate control for color feed.


Nuff said........
