And a clip and magazine. However these days they’re interchangeable; you get technical when writing about them but in normal conversation people know what you’re talking about.

No Kidding! I hear the term do you have enough bullets. Drives me crazy. If all you had was bullets you would have to throw them ! How about do you have enough ammunition?

Like the biker said ... if you’ve got a ten dollar head, buy a ten dollar helmet.

I’ll take the HSTs thanks.

Plinking’s one thing. Practice’s another. Shoot what you caarry. Afford it. Your life depends on it.

Shoot straight.
Shoot safe.
Pracice.
Carry.

I love (and own) guns just like the next guy, but I seriously cannot get twisted over someone's haphazard usage of arcane gun terms.

Heck, I heard one of the top GunTubers use the word 'bullets' instead of the proper, 'cartridges' just yesterday.

I can't afford what you 'rich' plinkers shoot.

I carry JHP in my G-19 but practice with the more affordable FMJ.

I hate rich shooters. :-)

"The first thing that people need to understand is the difference between a bullet and a cartridge..."

He shot all of his bullets, because he's very accurate. But then he shot his gun.

[Little painful exercise in semantics there.]

Re., BTW, we fire our weapon. If we shoot it, that might cause damage to it.

A few years ago there was an ammo shortage and whenever a store got a shipment it sold out quickly. There was an article about the shortage. Its title was “Bullets are flying off the shelves!”
