• A male chicken, a rooster. Puritans in the USA changed their name to rooster because the word also meant penis, so it's almost slang now to refer to a rooster as a cock in the USA. The rest of the English-speaking world as well as the French still use cock (the French spell it coq) to mean rooster.
  
  I spent $75 for this trio, two hens and a cock - they're supposed to be full blood Araucanas, and the cock has double tufts!

  -- "https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/cock" Cock is most often used to refer to either birds or guns. A cock is a rooster, but it's also the hammer on a gun that you adjust so you can fire it.

• Hammer. The part of a handgun or rifle that is pulled back and released with the trigger to hit the bullet. The meaning of cock to refer to the hammer on a gun is almost nonexistent any more, as the term hammer has taken over, although you can cock (v) the hammer.
