And FWIW, when *I* was in the military, range officers used the term "clip" almost exclusively.

Many shooters still do. From Wikipedia: "Due to popular usage of the
term clip interchangeably with magazine it now has the same meaning
and is defined as such" It's hilariously stupid of Gardner to think

listened to Bush say nookewler for years and it didn't bother him.
