OT,

Hold the Mayo, go buy a Shotgun News magazine, you'll probably see the word "clip" way more than magazine. I'm sure you can get nit picky and explain to me about stripper clips for old Garands, Mausers and such, save it. I was just using a bit of slang, like when me and my redneck buddies get all our assault weapons in a pick em up truck and drive out in the middle of nowhere to hunt two liter bottles, and beer bottles and cans, we never say, "dude toss me a magazine, i'm fresh out", it's always "clip me.". Same with pistold, you may, thanks to Clinton and the bleeding heart liberals, have to pay more for a high capacity "mag", but when you're out shooting it turns into a "clip". It's not just redneck talk either, I think if you went shooting with Rod Leatham or any other world class pistol shooter you would hear them talk about clips as much or more than mags.

Have you ever seen a real John Woo film, not the American stuff, but the Hong Kong one's hopefully with Chow Yun Fat? They have those real real high capacity pistolas, the kind that only need to be reloaded after every shoot-out, never during. I suspect you haven't seen one or you wouldn't have nitpicked. They're not for everyone, they're mega-violent, so much so that it becomes a parody of the schlock put out here, but with Mr. Woo directing it is still great to watch.
