Loaded Clip ?

[SDMF]

Weapons don’t use clips.

What about revolvers shooting non-rimmed cartridges that use Moon Clips?

Well that's just gay so I have no idea....lol

M-1 garand?

Speaking of M-1 Garand , any idea what one is worth in great shape , was not used in the military .

Stripper clips are used to put rounds into a magazine.

You do not attach a stripper clip to a weapon and rock on.

Context my friend.

The "clip" of 8 30-06 rounds goes into the Garand w/the ammo. The "clip" is what "pings" on the way out.

Stripper-clips are for clip-slotted bolt actions, AR's, and SKS's's's.

Sorry I missed ww2 and M1 training.

Again I’m wrong, won’t be the last time

 

[Jiffy]

So M1s use clips, I stand corrected!

To be exact it’s a “en bloc clip” according to my google powers

 

[Jiffy]

No. Winning a gunfight requires extreme power, noise, recoil and muzzle flash.

Non-Air Force types call this “superior firepower” and “violence of action”.

We get what you mean though, and it’s an absolute fact. For the most part.

Load em up and leave it that way. Including one in the tube

I thought it was illegal to drive with a loaded weapon of any kind in your vehicle

@Sum1

Not if you are legally allowed to carry a concealed weapon. In that case there is no need to remove the round from the chamber.

This explains the State's Attorney General's position on ND's Constitutional Carry law.

Importantly, in the CC, a "loaded" firearm is basically a rifle or pistol with a round in the chamber. A firearm with ammo in the magazine is not "loaded". When it comes to a revolver, any chamber of the revolver holding a live round is considered loaded.

Despite ND going the Constitutional Carry route, I have no intention of giving up my Concealed Weapon License.

I'm more worried about firing pin spring. I pull the trigger before closing the bolt to relax the spring. It might not be crucial on modern rifles but it's the way I was taught.

Ask a Vietnam Vet that carried a M-16 if they had 20 rounds in their 20 round Mags

You may know this: You don't have to dry fire a bolt gun. Hold the trigger back when closing the bolt.
FUN FACT: In the Air Farce, armorers dry fire ARs and store them "rack safe".

Once a month we had to strip our mags to stretch the springs and QC the ammo. It was fun. I used to disassemble qual issue mags to actually stretch the spring because I'm superior, excellent and superlative in providing community based law enforcement and peak nuclear security.

That was a different time…..and different engineering specs.

I know my AR's work better with a couple less rounds in the 10 and 20 round mags
