Apparently, the confusion over clip vs. mag is more widespread than previosly thought:

I really don't fret it myself. I try to use the proper terminology, but if someone says "clip" when they mean "magazine", I know what they're talking about.

I care a lot more about safety first, fun second, and accuracy last. Correct terminology just isn't that big a concern.

Funny story, Fort Polk, LA 1967 - - - I had just arrived at my Basic training company, on the second or third day our Drill Sergeant told us to go to the supply room and get our magazines (M-14.) Several of the guys thought we were going to be issued reading material. :smilelol5:

The instructor will take into account the capacity of your gun. At the DPS range, some of the instructors on have 5 shot revolvers. When we fire the 2 shot exercise (10 rounds), those students will do it in 3 stages, load 4, shoot 4, load 4 shoot 4, load 2, shoot 2.
