While it may look snazzy, it is really not a good practice. The 8 round en block clip holds 2 rows of 4 cartridges each. The sling is pressed into the center of the two rows. When grabbing the clip in a hurry, it is possible to snatch the cartridges out of the clip, where they will go flying.

The M1 Garand is a semi-automatic rifle that typically uses an 8-round clip. It can fire .30-06 Springfield ammunition, allowing for rapid follow-up shots compared to bolt-action rifles of its time. Once the clip is empty, the rifle automatically ejects it, making it ready to reload with another clip. Overall, the M1 Garand's design enables efficient shooting with a maximum capacity of 8 rounds before needing to reload.
