Etymology

From English centre as in centrefire (a kind of ammunition). Also claimed in some of the literature to be from centre-breech-loading shotgun, but such a term does not seem to exist. What does exist is a centrefire breechloader, i.e. a breech-loading shotgun that uses centrefire ammunition, and this may have been the kind of gun that Maltese senter originally referred to. Doublet of ċentru.
