    If I read one more news story where they call a rifle or pistol magazine a clip I am going to start calling in bomb threats, I swear. >:(  If they are so intellectually lazy they cannot be bothered to ensure they use proper terminology what else are they not doing?  It is right up there with calling an APC or IFV a tank in stories about the Iraq War.Biden: W.H. readies 19 executive actions on gunsBelow is an image of a magazine and a clip.  The clip is the thin metal strip that the cartridges are attached to; the magazine is the square metal box into the which the cartridges are pushed.[attachimg=1]

    Have you been hearing Piers Morgan lately on this issue?  It just so happens that the guy who's promoted to take Larry King's old spot is a good ol' fashioned liberal.  Go figure.

    I saw his original interview with where he kicked it all off and since then have been ignoring him ever since.Interesting experiment and I thought it was very clever to have girls do the shooting.The girl with the M-4s shooting stance was all wrong, she did not plant her rear foot correctly and had an unstable stance.  If I was RSO on that range she would have gotten chewed out for poor shooting.  She also takes too long to get back on target between shots given that she has a reflex sight mounted.I don’t know anyone that duck hunts with 00 Buck either.  Buckshot does do a pretty good job of tearing somebody up though, we used 00 Buck to breach doors in Iraq.
