Hey BTR, since I know you're a military man I wanted to ask you a little favor. Namely the rifle part names, the proper terminology used in English. I know them in Croatian even in my sleep, but in English besides few slang and or video game terms I'm lost.

Would the term rifle's body be correct for the main part, the one containing the firing and reloading mechanism, for example?

Think about an AK or an old M-16 here.
