Seems pretty universal on EVERY gun forum where a more seasoned user corrects a more novice user about magazine and clip.

Personally, i think it's BS. EVERYONE knows what a user is talking about when he says clip. I don't think it's necessary to correct the term EVERY single time it comes up.

Like the others have said, i wouldn't worry about it much. The trend will continue, and there's nothing you can do to stop it! lol
