bolt lever / cocking lever

You're talking about a bolt action gun, aren't you? It's a single shot gun, and in order to fire again, the bolt lever must be operated. If not a bolt action rifle, then it's a long gun of another kind (may even be a recoiless cannon, etc), and then it's a cocking lever. Good luck!
