Les fixateurs à cartouches (...) peuvent se classer en deux grandes catégories : 1) Les pistolets de scellement (...) 2) Les pistolets à masselotte dans lesquels une masse frappante transmet à la pièce l'énergie cinétique engendrée par l'explosion. Ces appareils sont de trois sortes : a) appareils à piston portant la pièce à fixer; b) appareils à piston frappant la pièce à fixer préalablement placée contre la paroi; c) appareils à guide auxiliaire. La pièce à fixer et le piston qui la porte sont posés contre la paroi. (...) Les appareils à masselotte permettent de réduire l'énergie cinétique fournie au projectile (...) pour le même effet de pénétration qu'avec un pistolet de scellement. Les appareils à masselotte sont beaucoup moins dangereux que les appareils à tir direct. 1, record 1, French, - pistolet%20%C3%A0%20masselotte
