I've always wondered HOW a barber makes a living. Even with non-stop customers, what are you going to have at the end of the day? $100-150 bucks? And you have overhead, chair rental, etc.

BTW, I'm totally ignorant on a "clip" versus "magazine". Please help me.

This picture shows a detachable rifle magazine on the left and a “Stripper” Clip on the right

The stripper clip is used to refill the magazine in a rapid manner by placing the one end of stripper clip in mouth of the magazine and pressing down with the thumb on the rounds forcing them in to the magazine.

The emptied stripper clip is then removed from the magazine. The magazine is then ready to load in to the rifle.

Generally speaking a Magazine is a storage place for ammunition. The term is very old and has it origins in the days of fortifications and wooden war ships. Clip
