Ever hear the expression- "Lock, stock, and barrel"- meaning the whole thing? Originally, those were the main parts of a musket- later, a rifle. The lock is the firing part- today it might be called the action. The stock is the part you hold, and brace against your shoulder. The barrel contains the cartridge, and guides the bullet as it leaves the rifle.
