What about the 30 round magazine clip in half a second?
JapAnus
Ah, you're thinking of the baby killing model. It's 5000 rounds per second capacity makes it incredibly accurate when loading into the port

Technically they are both clips

A clip is just a magazine trying to pay for college

Ban high capacity clips? Guess I’ll just load my m1 one round at a time.

You know, Tylenol did reduce its number of overdoses by switching to blister packs.

Where to en blocs (for a M1 Garand, for example) sit on this?

That would just be called an "en bloc clip." Or clips. Even though they are required to keep the bullets in the mag, the gun 1/?

OnlyWantToSayOneThing
BUT, you can speed load the magazine with a second clip if there is a clip inside of the magazine already. 3/3
tomyironmane
Pretty sure you can't. It was one of the drawbacks of the Garand. OTOH, it's one of the fastest rifles to reload that you can get.
OnlyWantToSayOneThing
I am nearly sure you can single load up to 6+1 in the chamber, pretty slow and high risk of garand thumb. Almost better to unload and 1/?
lysani
Those are clips, which are inserted into an internal magazine.

Dont bother trying to convince people who don't already know. They've made up their minds about anything to do with guns, and won' listen.

Or maybe "clip" is a common colloquial term for magazine and nobody gives a shit that it's not technically correct?

You know those fast loaders for revolvers? Are those clips?
CotterPyke
they're speed loaders - unless you're talkiong about half-moon clips (obsolete mostly).
allofthegoddamnusernameshavebeentaken
Yes
ironsights85
They’re just called speed loaders usually
tomyironmane
only the ones designed to make use of rimless cartridges like .45ACP or 9mm in revolvers, which stay attached to the cartridges.
evilpsych
Yes. Sometimes called ‘moon clips’ or speedloaders
SomeSortaPsycho
moon clips and speed loaders are just as different from each other as magazines and clips are from each other
Ferrumkit
Well the halfmoon and moon are clips, speedloader is a device D:
PCGamingKurshuk
Speedloader. For when you want to get shot because you can't just shove the thing in the thing.
aragornd2
But that thing can jam because of that thing in said thing.
PCGamingKurshuk
Sure, I guess it matters if you're firing auto ammo in a moon, or sliding in rimmed shit.
ArchchancellorRidcully
(2/2) Why, oh why do semi-autos always have to click when empty in movies? It makes me physically ill. Too much? I don't think so.
MattMcC980
Because having them lock open is to much effort
JustAnotherPOG
A double action will click with every trigger pull, even if the magazine is empty. That only covers a part of them, though.
whatsisname
I think full autos clicking repeatedly with one trigger pull is worse.
OnlyWantToSayOneThing
DEV: "because its empty, so the hammer falls on an empty cylinder dug" Thats not how guns work though mr dev. DEV: "Gameplay over realism"
marcusosappus
if they are DA, then they will click. SA, not so much.
marcusosappus
DA = dual action; SA = single action
JapAnus
*double action, but I'm just being autistic.
marcusosappus
I would say that you're just being correct.
tomyironmane
SA, relies on the weapon action to cock the hammer, and once it goes forward, must manually recock. DA, the trigger pull cocks the hammer
tomyironmane
... so a DA trigger pull is longer and heavier, which isn't really desirable. Also, most semiautos have a last round hold open.
marcusosappus
thanks for explaining it better than I did.
tomyironmane
Explaining things takes practice. Not many people get practice explaining firearms, since knowing these things is discouraged in many places
tomyironmane
Me, I'm old, cranky, and have 30 years experience shooting anything that goes bang, pow, blam, boom, Crack, pop, dakka, thoomp, or BOOM.
marcusosappus
well, I was just keeping it short and sweet. ;-)
EvilKrikkit
Pedantry noted.
CaribouNuggets
You guys need to learn the terminology of the things you want to ban.
DiracsDelta
Basic understanding of terminology is not pedantry. Clips are also outdated. Like Pez versus a candy bar.
bomboy23
Wait. Are pez outdated in this scenario?
EvilKrikkit
I understand your point, but, I feel this is pretty close to the "Can I?/May I".
OnlyWantToSayOneThing
The problem is you can sometimes find clips for current generation guns, and definitely some older guns before total clip->magazine convert
OnlyWantToSayOneThing
Try and call it pedantry when it takes 2 weeks to return a product to amazon and your own money is involved. /end
DiracsDelta
I suppose it is a relatively unimportant topic when considered alone. But people frequently make it important when they debate while 1/2
DiracsDelta
using the wrong nomenclature. People can’t accurately describe what they wish to legislate. This is a joke for those who find that funny.
NobleSeven
This is so annoying to talk to someone about guns and then they use the word "Clip" when it IS CLEARLY A MAG!!! *Rage mode engagued*
NobleSeven
*engaged
AlrightKeepYourSecrets
Its an easy mistake to make, its a common term used incorrectly.
NobleSeven
I know, I used to do the same thing until one of my friends switched me over lol
CandidGamera
Do you also rage when degenerate young-uns say "phone" instead of "multimedia mobile telecommunications device"?
NobleSeven
No, why would I rage over that?
CandidGamera
Incorrect (it's a computer) and imprecise ("phone" means "sound"), used just for the sake of brevity. Learn the difference.

Wait until you buy NERF guns that use "Clips" @op
umikaloo
It`s a controversial subject in the community. Most of us don`t care.
TraitorousTrump3
I clip my mags to the bolt. And pew pew pew.
MemeStealingSkeleton
I would buy the shit out of a nerf gun that uses stripper clips though and i would nut in my pants if they made a nerf garand or sks.
ChaotikWolfi
That... might actually work...they made some with internal magazines already, so introducing an En-block clip wouldn't be hard!
Fuzzysteve
The Nerf Rival Kronos has third party speed loaders which are basically stripper clips.
LTParry
Mauser C96 Broomhandle Nerf gun, with additional Stripper Clips :O
umikaloo
People have developed stripper clips for certain blasters. The difficult part is holding the darts in the clip.
RemiRixJones
Right?! Some people get pissy when you call them mags. And I’m like “...are they not?”
Maahes0
I see a lot of youtubers have adopted the hybrid term "Clipazine"
Wolokos
Youtubers on what topic? Are they talking about weapons, or are they just gamers or something?
Maahes0
NERF gun modders who hate that officially NERF gun magazines are called clips.
Wolokos
Oh... well that's stupid (the official name, and the "clipazine" name)
RemiRixJones
A reasonable compromise, but I can’t bring myself to say it. And it’s not like I have any pride; I’m playing with Nerf guns.
OtterlyMagnificent
I've always called them Magazines
Maahes0
Nerf guns are amazing.
Reignkinge
Are there / were there any common pistols that use(d) clips ?
CandidGamera
Most do if you call a magazine a clip. And why wouldn't you, the meaning's still clear, no chance for misunderstanding and it's shorter.
JustAnotherCommunist
Red 9, C96 and Mauser Broomhandle all used them.
JapAnus
No modern ones, and the only one I can think of is what SoggyWalrus mentioned
SoggyWalrus
The early pattern Mauser C96 in 7.63 Mauser was fed with stripper clips
tomyironmane
the red nines were too, IIRC. Though there were some chinese knockoffs in .45ACP that used a detachable box mag. I kinda want one of those.
tomyironmane
Except, you know, not made in China.
Reignkinge
Neat! I’ve seen Mausers before (in media) but never noticed a clip with one. Thx!

izzysage1616
He held his empty clip to bang on his helmet to make the germans think he was empty. While still having three rounds remaining.

LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
Clips load magazines, magazines load guns.
CandidGamera
Since we're being pedantic: they feed chambers. The loading mechanisms load.
JapAnus
Well clips can also load guns.
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
Clips always load magazines. Guns can have internal, non-detachable magazines. Magazines store cartridges for the bolt to access.
JapAnus
You know what, I had a total brain fart. I completely forgot that part, sorry.
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
All good!
AlrightKeepYourSecrets
So even for something fully internal like the Kar 98, it still counts as a magazine inside it?
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
Yes. The magazine, detachable or not, is from which the bolt feeds cartridges to the chamber. Now, something like a break-open shotgun
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
the shells are loaded directly into the chamber, but there is no other source within the gun from which they are fed directly into the chamb
tomyironmane
Except the Garand, which you just shove the whole damn clip in.
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
AKA "en-bloc". Still internal magazine.
tomyironmane
I know. It's one of those interesting special cases. Yanno that the M14 is actually closer to what Garand initially presented to the Army?
