[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3017542, member: 40864"] Yeah... ever hear of "banana clips" for AKs? They were called that for years. :P I know they're different devices, so does the guy below, yet he gives some food for thought. [i]"The Definitions: Webster defines magazine as: a supply chamber; a holder in or on a gun for cartridges to be fed into the gun chamber automatically. Webster defines clip as: a device to hold cartridges of recharging the magazines of some rifles; [u]a magazine[/u] from which ammunition is fed into the chamber of a firearm." [b]” … in 1909-1910 U.S. Ordinance reports referred to the 'clip' of the upcoming service pistol.” This would indicate that the U.S. armed forces, at least in some capacity, called what we know as magazines 'clips.'[/b]"[/i] [URL]http://dailycaller.com/2013/05/31/bullshooters-clip-or-magazine/[/URL] I don't advocate calling a mag a clip, just don't see why the big deal when occasionally someone does. :drunk2: [/QUOTE]
