How many shots do the clips of either of those hold?

Thats Scheer firepower.

The Houston Chronicle is such a leftist tool

Of course you'll remember this from a Bush '04 support rally....

No, I don't remember seeing that at the time, but it's typical of the assclowns that "do" political journalism over there.

You may have noticed they bagged Clay Robison at the Austin bureau. He was a lot less political than some .... Cragg Hines comes to mind <barf alert>, and Julie Mason (Miss Snark). That more-recent redheaded shrew that gets her own column about takes the cake -- the one who was calling OBL opponents "racists" and "bigots" and so on.

I had an exchange of e-mails with Andrea Georgsson (formerly Andrea Greene) over some issue or other, and I can promise you she is a piece of work, too -- she writes just like the seminar Mau-Mau's who sometimes get zotted over here and make the stinking compost over at DU hum the way it does.

I honestly don't know -- the guys upthread were discussing the Beretta M-9 (seems it can take a 30- or 33-round clip, which is probably an aftermarket extended clip IMVHO), and I don't recall about the Stetchkin. It was of a size iirc (big frame) that suggested it loaded about 15 rounds, something like that. But you'd have to look it up. It was, iirc, a KGB-issued piece, a big brother to the Makarovs in 9x18mm that they usually carried.
