Clips and magazines are two pretty different things, unfortunately many people (including PlaceRebuilder) don't seem to understand that. I took it upon myself to replace any improper usage of "clip" with "mag" or "magazine".

So what is the difference between the two? Put simply, a clip feeds a (almost always internal) mag, and a mag feeds a gun.

In a little more detail, Clips

-Static piece of metal

-No moving parts

-Used to fill magazines such as the Mauser C96 or M1 Garand (which do have magazines, they're just not removable)

Magazines

-Typically a box with multiple parts

-Contains a part under spring tension to push rounds into the chamber

-Used to feed rounds into the chamber so that they can actually be fired

Hopefully this is able to clear up misconceptions as well as better your understanding of firearms. While this may seem nitpicky, I assure you that any knowledgable gun owner would correct you if you misused the terms. also they're not mini uzis they're micro uzis pr pls fix
