The matchlock constituted the first mechanical device for firing.(...) For this improvement(...) two modifications of the hand cannon were necessary : the addition of a pan to hold the priming powder, which replaced the match in setting off the powder charge inside the barrel, and the addition of the serpentine, holding the match and thus freeing the hand of the shooter or his aide. These original matchlocks did not as yet include the leverage system worked by a trigger and indeed did, not have true "locks". Instead, the serpentine was a simple S-shaped arm pivoted in its center, the lower end serving as a handle by which the shooter moved the device manually.  1, record 2, English, - match

(...) une platine de la forme la plus primitive fut ajoutée au canon à main; elle consistait en une tige en forme de S fixée par un pivot en son milieu de façon que, lorsque l'on tirait en arrière la partie inférieure, la partie supérieure, terminée par des mâchoires serrant un morceau de mèche allumée, venait automatiquement en contact avec le bassinet contenant la poudre d'amorce. Le tireur pouvait ainsi tenir son arme des deux mains et faire feu en agissant avec le doigt.  2, record 2, French, - m%C3%A8che

After a carpet is woven, it must be carefully inspected. Minor imperfections may be repaired by burling--a hand process. An electric tufting gun with a needle in its barrel is used to insert a missing bit of yarn in a tufted carpet. Custom designs may also be created with the gun.  3, record 3, English, - burling

Easily the most dangerous event in rodeo is bull riding. This is so because of the size and ferocity of the adversary. A rodeo bull can sometimes weigh over 2, 500 pounds(1, 130 kg) and nearly always weighs at least a ton. The most common bull used in rodeo is the Brahma,... No spurring or marking is required of the cowboy in bull riding. He holds on to a bull-rope that encircles the animal' s barrel and then is wrapped around the cowboy's hand. The only requirement is that the cowboy not touch anything with his free hand and that he stay aboard for the 10-second ride.  2, record 4, English, - bull%20riding

Crosse à dessous droit, dans le prolongement de la poignée. C'est le type classique de la crosse à épauler tel qu'il a commencé à se fixer à partir de 1650 et a continué jusqu'à nos jours, sous des versions peu différentes, tant sur les armes de chasse que de guerre. Réputée donner une mise en joue plus rapide que les crosses «genre pistolet», la crosse anglaise reste préférée de nombreux chasseurs.  1, record 5, French, - crosse%20anglaise
