"bretelle automatique et canons isochromés." Automatic sling; crome-plated bores.... Learned new gun words ....thanks. I'd have asked spouse...but she can only take a couple of questions about French words a day before she starts questioning why I can't speak French after 35 years while she speaks perfect English (with an adorable accent and beaucoup de "Voila's" thrown into every sentence)..(and emphasis provided by multiple "mon Dieu," et "puree de mince".)
Wonder how one can differentiate between "canons" for barrels and "canons" for bores...maybe it's just understood that you're not going to have a chrome barrel on the outside...sort of a Harley Davidson option?
US Army in 1966 tried to get around the jamming problems associated with the M-16 by chrome plating the chambers. Problems with the Russian/Soviet Disku .50 were addressed in the same way in Afghanistan without much success..it was a piece of merde when compared to a Browning
