One time I was in Walmart and asked if they sold gun magazines, and the guy said "they're up at the front of the store", which I thought was weird. He was talking about printed magazines. I was talking about metal things that hold bullets.
After that I just say "clip" even knowing it's not technically correct.
More info: there was a time when Walmart sold all kinds of gun stuff. I don't know if they do anymore. I used to buy 500 .22 long rifle bullets for $15.
They still do, at least in Kentucky. That's where I picked up a case for my first dulcimer. Dulcimers and rifles have similar dimensions, and I needed something quick to protect my new instrument on a long drive home.
Yes, the Federal blue box.
if you say "clip", they'll just send you to the DVD section ๐
