7 mm (.30) magazines

Joe, So many people interchange the two words...Ed is correct. A clip holds cartridges that are to be inserted into a non detachable magazine that is integral to the firearm. A C-96 uses a clip which attaches temporarily to the pistol, the cartridges are then thrust into the magazine and then the stripper clip is removed.

The M-1 Garand is another example. Cartridges are inserted into the rifle's non detachable magazine and the clip is spit out.

Come to think of it I guess there should be a nomenclature for a removeable magazine and an integral one? I don't know it if there is?

Like Ed says..Perhaps if TAC reads this he would know.
