Compressed springs will lose some of their strength over long periods of time. I have fired M1911A1 magazines that were left loaded for decades with no problems and with problems. There is no way to know for sure

Why is a gun' clip' also referred to as magazine?

While some people use the terms interchangeably, the proper term IS magazine, Magazine comes from a French word for storage. A clip holds cartridges, so that they may be quickly loaded INTO the magazine. Example- an AR 15 rifle may have ammunition loaded in 10 round "clips". The cartridges are pushed from the clip into the magazine. The MAGAZINE is then loaded into the rifle. However, some rifles, such as the M1 Garand, used an "en bloc" clip. This held the cartridges, and the entire clip was inserted into the rifle magazine. Confused now?


Where can you find ammo clips for a Colt Double Eagle in 10 MM?

You won't, because it doesn't use clips, it uses magazines. Sounds picky, but, there are weapons that use clips, not magazines. Here is the basic difference, a magazine is a container which holds ammunition, while a clip holds ammunition in place when outside the magazine, and in some weapons with an internal magazine as well. For example, the M1 Garand has an internal magazine that you load with a clip that stays in the weapon until the last round is fired and then it is ejected. The M1903 Springfield has an internal magazine that can be loaded via a clip, but, the clip does not go into the magazine. The M16 has a magazine that goes into the magazine well of the weapon. You can load the magazine with a clip, but, the magazine has to be out of the weapon to do this. Try e-gunparts.com for magazines.


What are the benefits on having your clip in your gun while in a vehicle?

Having a magazine in a firearm can mean that the firearm is loaded, and ready for use (if a cartridge has been chambered). If it is not loaded, it takes longer to put it in a condition that it can be fired.


How many darts does the stampede shoot?

The stampede can shoot as many darts as you have loaded into clips, and fires at a rate of 3 darts per second with fresh batteries and will slow to about 2 darts per second as the batteries are used up (this will take a while if you spend a few extra dollars and get a better brand of D size batteries). You are probably aware that the stampede comes with 60 darts which are loaded into the 3x 18 dart clips and the 1x 6 dart clip. If you become quick at changing the clips you will fire all 60 darts in under 40 seconds!


What does the switch on the side of a browning a500r do?

This switch operates the Magazine cutoff. The cutoff enables the gun to open the chamber and remove the shell to insert a different shell into the chamber, but it is done while the magazine remains loaded. This way, the chamber can be emptied and the extra shells in the magazine will not automatically load. Recommend you use the link below to the Owners Manual for the A500 model. The Magazine Cutoff operations are shown on pages 29 and 30.

Is there a difference between an m14 and m1 carbine?

Yes, quite a few, the M-14 is a full size battle rifle (later a marksman's rifle), and fires a full size rifle cartridge (7.62x51mm NATO), while the M-1 Carbine is intended as a small personal defence weapon at close to medium ranges, and it fires a .30 cal. Carbine cartridge, which is comparible in size and effectiveness to a .357 magnum, ideal for what the Carbine was designed for. The M-14 was also originally designed to be loaded by two stripper clips (ten rounds per clip) through the top of the receiver, fed into the box magazine, the carbine, was loaded by removing the magazine, then reloading a new one. Later, the M-14's loading procedure was changed, and troops were taught to reload the box magazine and replace it with new ones, like most modern rifles were at that time, instead of using the slow, two stripper clips feed. The M-1 Carbine was initially also only a semi-automatic design, while the M-14 was always able to fire in semi or full automatic.


Can a dragunov take a ak 47 clip?

First off, I assume that you are talking about magazines, not clips. Neither the SVD Dragunov or AK-47 use clips. The answer is no. The SVD uses a 7.62x54 round, while the AK-47 uses the 7.62x39 round. In basic terms, the SVD uses a larger round and thus a larger magazine than the AK-47.
