English term

slide (of a gun)

English to Portuguese Tech/Engineering Military / Defense
Num romance:

"She pulls the top so far back that I can see the small round barrel at the front, but she’s only checking the
chamber. I only see a fraction of the casing before the SLIDE jumps forward with a very heavy click. With a half wave, she motions for me to remove the holster on mine."

pelo que entendi, é aquela parte de cima de uma pistola que desliza para a frente a trás, porém não encontrei nenhum termo em pt-Br

muito obrigado

Nick Taylor Jul 14, 2015:
Ferrolho is very specific to "slide" in automatic pistols (Browning, Colt 1911, Glock etc.)
Ferrolho and CULATRA (pt/Pt) are virtually interchangeable with BOLT (culatra) action rifles such as mauser, Lee Enfield, Springfield etc. But culatra would not be used with pistols generally.

neutral Mauro Lando : Nick I understand next to nothing about fireams, but I believe "ferrolho" is used only for shotguns, e.g. the old Mauser1898 - neer saw this word used for handguns. OK, so my ignorance on firearms is confirmed.

Generally the automatic pistol has a "ferrolho" (see glock take-down) Abra o ferrolho. Mantenha a arma apontada para a mesma direção, puxe o ferrolho e solte-o com o retém do ferrolho. É possível puxar esse último com o seu polegar enquanto você segura o.
agree Mario Freitas : Absolutely. In pistols, it's called a "ferrolho". If it were a shotgun, it would be a telha or trilha.
