Clips vs Magazine

[Scanker19]

Clip to me is another "fear word" that anti's will use against us. Just like assault rifle. Are they? Maybe but no one will ever hear me refer to my AR as an assault rifle.

Proper terminology will also standarized every one to prevent confusion. If you tell some one you need a glock clip you may end up with a belt attachment. Or if you say pull out on the mushroom on the AP side they may end up pulling out the feed select solenoid, then we'll all be in trouble.



Raise your hand if you got that last reference.

I don't have as much problem with assault rifle as I do assault weapon. At least an assault rifle isn't a made up term meant to scare the uninformed. I do enjoy correcting people who try to tell me that the "AR" in AR-15 means assault rifle...

If somebody calls a magazine a clip, I normally just press on. There are a ton of other things that are more important out there to worry about and get my blood pressure up over. Clips vs mags sure isnt one of them.

You know when I buy on Gunbroker thier search engines lists magazines and clips together on rifles and pistols. For example when you run any pistol in the search engine one of the links comes up= Pistol Parts > Magazines / Clips . Wish they of all the businesses would correct that.

Bullet, round or cartridge?

everyone knows what everyone else means, so; clip or magazine... it doesn't bug me. A magazine is just a spring-driven enclosed clip when you think about it.

I thought a clip was what women and really femine guys use in their hair.

Stripper clips I just call strippers (makes me go to my happy place in my mind).

Embloc's are its own seperate entity because they feed the mother of all badass rilfes.

DAMMIT don't you know that for reloaders you screw it all up by saying stuff like that. If it is ready to fire completely assembled then it is called ammo or ammunition. What are you really talking about?
