La mayoría de armas modernas tienen surcos de bordes afilados. Más recientemente, el rayado poligonal, uno de los primeros tipos de rayado de cañones, ha empezado a resurgir, y se ha puesto de moda, especialmente en el diseño de pistolas. Los cañones de ánima poligonal tienden a tener una vida útil mayor, al reducir el desgaste que producen los bordes afilados de los surcos del ánima rayada convencional moderna. Los partidarios de este diseño aducen mayores velocidades y mayor precisión.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rifling
The grooves most commonly used in modern rifling have fairly sharp edges. More recently, polygonal rifling, a throwback to the earliest types of rifling, has become popular, especially in handguns. Polygonal barrels tend to have longer service lives because the reduction of the sharp edges of the land (the grooves are the spaces that are cut out, and the resulting ridges are called lands) reduces erosion of the barrel. Supporters of polygonal rifling also claim higher velocities and greater accuracy. Polygonal rifling is currently seen on pistols from CZ, Heckler & Koch, Glock, Tanfoglio, and Kahr Arms, as well as the Desert Eagle.

agree  Javier Canals: Estrías, ranuras o surcos es la designación de las "grooves" en el ánima del arma. Hacen girar el proyectil y estabilizan su trayectoria. No conozco ninguna denominación habitual para "lands", que son las zonas no rebajadas del ánima.
