magazine vs clip rant

Just remember: LGS = "Local Side Arm and Rifle Store". - and sometimes ammo, holsters, jerky, slings, stuff and windshield wipers.
 
My Uncle who came back from WWII had a Garand with several CLIPS>>

I work at Gander Mountain in the hunting dept and more than half of the people looking at handguns ask how many CLIPS it comes with. It didn't bother me at first but now its starting to annoy me. next time someone asks how many CLIPS it comes with,I should say none, but it does come with two MAGAZINES. I don't have the time to educate people on magazine vs clip. Would any of you feel frustrated at this or am I just over thinking it? btw, sorry for posting in M&P forum, this is where I always go. Thanks for reading.
check with Cheaper than dirt they still sell CLIPS, I guess Gander Mountain does not.. thats good to know...
 
Just calmly reach over the counter, grab them, and pistol whip them, then move on to the next customer.

Just kidding!

I was told years ago clips have 3 sides and magazines have 6.

We didn't call them anything in the Navy. A7-E's didn't have clips or magazines, just bombs and missiles.
