Why does everyone in the podcast keep on referring to magazines as clips?

I have noticed that too. I could excuse it from some of the 'civilian' characters, but when the military folk say clip, then it really digs at me.
And as a gunsmith, that digs at me more than a dental drill.
I am going back through and listening to the entire series over for the 5th time from the start and I guess I just didn't pay attention to it the other times but now it's every time someone refers to magazine they use the word clip to describe it.

I brought this up in another thread as well. Like TacticalJHP said, It wouldn't bother me all that much if it were only te civilians saying it, but when Angel, Saul and Michael are saying it it is like nails on a chalkboard. And then Burt? A gun shop owner and avid competition shooter? If he would have called a magazine a clip at a competition he probably never would have heard the end of it

Yeah, I agree with all these things. It's a mistake made long ago and I can't go back to correct it now. Perhaps one day, in some special box set...
Sounds like a job for a voice over with Michael Swans voice haha
I've been around firearms my entire life so when people use mag and clip interchangably it sounds like nails on a chalk board to me. That's all my one and only gripe about that podcast. Aside from that I love the podcast and can't wait to see how it will all wrap up, that being said I don't want it to end.
Like everything else.. I tend to ignore it cause it drives me nuts if I pay it attention.. Plus they are in California after all LOL!!!!
