Just catching up, after having been away from the computer for a few days. Thanks to WC and Argo . . . and a few additions and corrections:
Ailes--side clips
Canon raye dispersant--Rifled spreader barrel (usually on Euro woodcock guns)
Cylindrique--cylinder choke (synonym: lisse)
Plein--full (as in choke)
Poudre blanche--smokeless powder
Contre-platine (or, I think, fausse platine)--false sideplate
Canons frettes--Aren't necessarily sleeved barrels as we think of it in English, which means replacing the original ones. For example, the Manufrance Robust was made from scratch with canons frettes. Not sure if the same term would be applied to doubles like those made by Beretta or SKB (Japanese), which are monobloc but don't have the "step" joint where the barrels mate up with the chambers.
