Well, at least they said “rounds” instead of bullets.
Of course, they used “bullet” in the headline.
When people get a Journalism degree, they should be required to work on a farm, in an auto plant, in a coal mine, in a truck stop, a police station, on a military base, and a hospital for 6 months each before they are permitted to write one word.
I also hate when they call it a “clip”. I have had occasion to try to show a friend the “magazine safety” feature on S&W semi-autos I own whereby dropping the magazine out will not allow the round in the chamber to fire, but it was done at a range and pointed down range just as if we were firing. I would never in a million years trust in any “safety” feature while the gun were pointed at anything or anybody. My worst experience was once when my neighbor handed me a little “Praetoria Arms” .25. There was no magazine in it and I watched him cycle the action to check clear, but never did so myself. I was holding this little piece of rust he’d found, had it pointed at the dirt and damn if it didn’t “go bang”. There was one hung in there somehow and, sure enough, ...I was reminded that idiots like me have to be extra careful. He asked what he should do with it. I said. “Wait for one of those dumbass ‘gun buybacks’ and get the $50 because that’s about $75 more than it’s worth.”

You beat me to it!
Thank You, I hate it when people call them clips.
