They shouldn’t twitch over an accurate statement. Now, you call the M14’s magazines “clips” and we’ll have words.

Copy that 08. An en-bloc is a clip, a stripper is a clip, a tube is a magazine and a box magazine is a magazine.

What I was getting at is my annoyance at the way some people never miss an opportunity to correct people about it. I'm becoming a curmudgeon I think, because I sometimes use the term clip incorrectly because it gives me the same feeling I get when I drive to the end of my block before I buckle my seat belt.

May there be many safe and happy emptied magazines in your future.

Some people can get carried away. ;)
