Rifle

Fuzil

Rifle is the designation used for portable, long-barreled firearms. They can be repeating, semi-automatic or fully automatic. Also the terms "rifle" or "refle", words taken from the English language can be used. The name "rifle" comes from the name of the metal part of the old shotguns which, struck by the silex, produced the spark that caused the explosion, producing the shot of the projectile. The word "rifle" was eventually used to designate not just the metal part, but the whole weapon itself. The term has never been used much in the Portuguese language if not in the military, being in the civilian means preferentially the designation "shotgun", which is wrong. However, in the late 19th century, in Brazil, because of the French military influence in that country, the term began to be used to designate long barreled soul barrels. In Portugal, the term "rifle" continued to be rarely used. The difference between "rifle" and "rifle" is just the size of the barrel, having the "carbine" barrel less than 48cm. Fuzil é a designação usada para armas de fogo portátil, de cano longo. Podem ser de repetição, semi-automáticos ou totalmente automáticos. Também podem ser usados os termos "rifle" ou "refle", palavras tomadas da língua inglesa. A denominação "fuzil" tem origem no nome da peça metálica das antigas espingardas de pedeneira que, percutida pelo silex, produzia a faísca que originava a deflagração, produzindo o disparo do projétil. A palavra "fuzil" acabou por ser utilizada para designar, não apenas a peça metálica, mas toda a arma em si. O termo nunca foi muito utilizado na língua portuguesa se não no meio militar, sendo no meio civil usada preferencialmente a designação "espingarda", o que é errado. Contudo, no final do século XIX, no Brasil, em virtude da influência militar francesa neste país, o termo começou a ser usado para designar as armas longas de cano de alma raiada. Já em Portugal, o termo "fuzil" continuou a ser raramente utilizado. A diferença entre "fuzil" e "carabina" é apenas o tamanho do cano, tendo a "carabina" cano menor que 48cm.
