    Default Magazine vs Clip finally resolved

    I liked what I read I believe in Cheaper Than Dirt:

    A magazine has a spring. A clip doesn't.

    Perfect! I'm gonna use that one until I'm back to dust.

    A clip also usually ejects itself.

    Clip = directly holds ammunition
    Magazine = ammunition is fully contained* within the body of the device



    * - except the top most round which is being presented for feeding into the chamber (I'm covering all bases for the resident wise-asses - you know who you are )

    Clip feeds magazine. Magazine feeds gun.
