Its egregious. Like calling a car a boat. Both transport, just in different ways.

more like calling a truck a car. like if my wife says "can you go move your car" and i say "it's not a car, it's a truck". yeah, i'm technically right, but i'm also being a dickhead and it doesnt matter.

the terms clip and magazine have been used interchangeably for decades. even if it's not technically correct, it's still widely used. acting like it's the same as calling a car a boat is silly.

same with "bullets" and "rounds". breathlessly correcting everyone who makes this mistake just makes gun guys look like assholes.

Incorrectly.

Go to a sporting goods store and ask for a clip, see how they react

no, not for knowing. for believing it is their mission from God to correct every instance of this and educate every person who makes this very innocuous and easy mistake.


Outstanding. Coming from someone who apparently thinks it’s their mission from God to chastise and complain to someone for making a post about proper names of firearm components.

My post keeps people from looking like a moron in a gun shop. You post, however conveys zero knowledge and just screams male Karen.

I’ll get the manager for you. Don’t worry.

We are so damn desensitized now that my first thought was “is that a damn Soviet rifle?”


In a way we are, in a way we aren't.

There so much barbarism in the world on a daily basis, Americans are just comfortable and shielded from it for about the last 100 years, but for the majority of our ancestors and our history as a country, violence was very normal.

Who is right? For the amount of time humans have been on the planet, extreme violence has been the norm and a way of life.

WE are the living experiment, and just because the last 3-5 generations have been secluded from living through extreme violence, it doesn't mean we have life figured out and that we are righteous.

We live in a society where a huge portion of it actually thinks it's ethical and righteous to mutilate children's genetalia and to give them artificial hormones to substantiate an evil act where adults are supposed to take care of children and protect. And not only that, millions, if not billions is made off of this via pharmaceuticals, evil woke Doctor's, and politicians being lobbied.

In my opinion, extreme violence would be a reasonable punishment to those people as they are literally preying on children, and I believe I am morally and ethically right, but I'm not going to be the one to do it unless someone in anyway attempts that on my own children. Again, my job is to protect them from evil and to do what is necessary.

And that can be applied to many things in modern society that we think is "just" and righteous. The fact that a bullshite fake vaccine with terrible side effects was just MANDATED to many Americans and all the phat cats that power grabbed and enriched themselves from Big Pharma is extremely evil, yet no consequences will ever come to the parties responsible.

In a different era, the overwhelming majority of human history, people of that level of evil would have been dealt with accordingly at some point.

Damn we used to have good false flag attacks like 9/11 and the Las Vegas shooting. Now this type of shite is what we get, embarrassing from the supposed most powerful country in the world.

Agree. The terminology nazis are a recent thing. I grew up on 80's movies and TV shows that all called it a clip. I feel like that's the case for a lot of people.

Who gives a shite? Constantly correcting people like it's a big own just makes you look like a snippy gun nut.

Why are liberal white people so obsessed with native Americans or slavery? Must be exhausting
