Look, if we're going to have a million gun threads can we get something right? Clips vs. Magazines

[Botany]

80. Be it a clip or a magazine they both do the exact same thing ....

..... and that is to hold the rounds before one round winds up in the firing
chamber of the gun at which after the trigger is squeezed the firing
pin hits the primer (or the rim in the case of a rim fired round) after
which the gun powder ignites which sends the projectile down the gun
barrel and then out into the environment which might be a movie theater,
a first grade class room, or a house fire in upstate NY and if that slug hits
a person they might very well wind up just as dead no matter if the weapon
had a clip, a magazine, or it was a single shot bolt action rifle.

The issue is not clips vs magazines but the proliferation of guns and a
proliferation of different methods with which a person can increase
the amount of times a weapon can be fired with out reloading.
