Clip Vs. Magazine: Don’t Waste Your Breath

The "clip vs. magazine" debate is one of the most tired tropes in firearms. Sure, definitions matter, but is it worth wasting your breath?

Let the word smithing begin...

A clip is a metal device used to load ammunition into a magazine. They're usually shaped to hold cartridges in a row and are pushed into a magazine by hand to load it. A magazine, in turn, is a spring loaded device or holding area on a firearm that feeds rounds into the chamber of the gun during use.

It says this on the internet. If its on the internet it has to be true...

well, i always heard a magazine called a "clip" like in nearly all cops tv shows or movies.

when i started going to the public range to rent guns before buying, that's when i was told the difference, but to not sweat it, way too many people get that wrong.

as long as i put mustard on my hot dogs, and NOT ketchup, we're all good.
