Is this a hammer drill?

The icon is a little different to what I've seen on others and I don't know how to tell otherwise.
Thanks!
I use a 1/2" Jacob's chuck hammer drill to drill into rock to set rock climbing routes. I've done plenty of granite. I start with a 1/4" pilot hole then the full 3/8" that I need to set the anchor in.
Yes it’s possible, it’s just why spend 30 minutes drilling one hole when you could have the proper tool and be done in seconds.
Homeowner doing it for themselves it makes sense, but if you’re paying someone or doing it to make money, get the right tools. You’ll make the money back in a dozen holes from the man hours you save.
Not everyone everywhere can afford a hammer drill for a single hole
Rent it, or buy it - use it and return it like everyone else.
