magazine (weapon)
弾倉 マガジン mag STANAG STANAGマガジン 弹匣
A device used for storing ammunition and feeding it into a repeating firearm. May be referred to as a "mag" for short. Found in internal as well as external types, the most common is the detachable box magazine, such as that used by most modern assault rifles and semi-automatic handguns. Magazines generally have spring-like object inside that pushes ammunition into the chamber.
Not to be confused with a clip, a simple strip that store multiple rounds together as a unit for reloading into the fixed magazine or cylinder of a firearm.
