Everyone has some 'Pet Peeve", often based on a semantics issue.

Personally, mine is that when I say   "I wanna watch"  I don't mean I'd like a new timepiece.  ;D ;D
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Okay, now you've done it.   You've made me pull out all my graphic artist's skill to show you once and for all the difference.

Below is a clip.....  the model might be a member of this board.

Next is a magazine.  This one of historical significance.




I hope that settles that.

So... a 'clip' is something that fits into a 'magazine' when worn on the head. Ya clarified donkey doodly!  ;D
Anti: I think some of you gentleman would choose to apply a gun shaped remedy to any problem or potential problem that presented itself? Your reverance (sic) for firearms is maintained with an almost religious zeal. The mind boggles! it really does...

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.

Hey Dave, Cabela's Catalog is a lousy example, what some marketing a--hole says is meaningless, HK had a poster put out that some one posted a link to it showed a pistol and loaded MAGAZINE. Fine, except the bullets were in the magazine backwards.

Proper nomenclature is important, other wise we don't know what some one is talking about, Stupid and ignorant are not the same thing, using them interchangeably doesn't change that.
Same with Clips and mags.

Donkey doodly, is where this thread has drifted.    But it was a minor amusement against the backdrop of more serious issues this week.

And what did you expect from this group?
