Calmly tell your Uncle the difference without acting like it's a secret that only gun intelligentsia with years of training are privy to.


WAY too much is made over this on firearms boards. Who cares.

I didn't correct him. I knew what he meant, and I'm used to hearing incorrect terminology from him. I posted it because I know someone here will get their panties in a twist.

never heard De-Clip - Re-Clip before. Sometimes I educate people about the difference between a clip and a magazine, but only if I think they care and would like to use the right term to not sound like an idiot.

That's what I suggested. He has two SKSs right now and some x39 ammo.

A "clip" feeds a Magazine, a magazine feeds the chamber.

My sks uses a clip(also known as a stripper clip). Did I misread something again?

Give your uncle 2 strippers and he will forget about clips and magazines.
