When a bunch of us up here in Maine get together to shoot, be it rifles, shotguns, bows, pistols, whatever. The subject always turns to guns and anything related to guns. NOT ONCE have I ever heard someone refer to a clip as a " Detatchable Magazine."
Yeah, yeah, I know that TECHNICALLY there is a difference, but I bet you don' t tell somebody you have to wash your " autmobile." You probably say car or truck.
