It sounds like you have the bobbed hammer. I think the 4566 was offered with both bobbed and spurred hammers, with the spur hammer more popular. As others have said, the 4566 was DA/SA so yours should be also.

You can check by racking the slide. If the hammer stays back then the gun is DA/SA. If the hammer falls the gun is DAO unless the internals are worn allowing the hammer to fall without pulling the trigger.
