Stripper clip - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia It is called a 'stripper' clip because the cartridges are 'stripped' off the device when the ammunition is loaded. As of the early 21st century, firearms that accept stripper clips are rarely used for military purposes; stripper clips do remain in use for refilling the detachable magazines used on a variety of modern rifles, such as the M-16, as they are faster and easier to use than handloading. A stripper clip is only for loading the magazine and is not necessary for the firearm to function. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Stripper_clip   (360 words)

The Gun Zone -- Primer on Clips and Magazines The "stripper clip" is an alternate term for Charger, "stripper" being added to distinguish it from true "clips." Some writers prefer to use "stripper" for a type of charger that is used to load magazines when they are not attached to the weapon. These differ somewhat from clips used in rifles in that their main function is to facilitate the ejection of the rounds rather than the feeding. Using "clip" when one means "magazine" is akin to saying "tires" when one actually means "wheels." If it does get the speaker immediately corrected, often unkindly, in newsgroups and on Forums, then such a malaprop marks the user as a hopeless newbie. www.thegunzone.com /clips-mags.html   (1096 words)

Patent 4942802: Convertible, belt/clip-fed automatic gun with positive shell casing ejection Although gun 10 is, as a light machine gun, primarily intented for firing belted ammunition, as is enabled by belt adapter assembly 40 and cam follower assembly 46, emergency situations may arise during combat in which supplies of belted ammunition for the gun may run out. The automatic gun as claimed in claims 1, 8 or 15 wherein the clip holder and the means for attaching the clip holder to the receiver are configured for holding a clip at angle causing the clip to be out of the sight path of the gun. In most military organizations, rifles have typically been supplemented, on a company, platoon or squad level, by submachine guns (which fire pistol ammunition) and light machine guns (which fire rifle ammunition). www.freepatentsonline.com /4942802.html   (332 words)

YANKEE DIVISION (26TH INFANTRY) WEB SITE. My rifle consumed 20 rounds of ammunition at a time;all in one clip ( a former officer wrote me it was not a clip but a "magazine"; so be it since "so what"?) I had an ammunition carrier (Henry Wojcicki aka Henry Wick) who never had much ammo to carry since we didn't have much! That included the canteen,the first aid kit, the mess kit, the leggings, the Enfield rifle, the rounds of ammunition (all ammunition is dated on the firing cap), the shovel and the field pack. My Browning Automatic rifle, with which I fought in combat, was produced in 1917 by the Springfield Armory and was as faulty as a weapon could be including jamming too, too frequently.I disliked it with a passion and considered it a lousy weapon. www.rinfret.com /ww2.html   (332 words)

gtds_3.html And recall that within minutes after the Carcano was seen with a clip, and the "Mauser" bullet was given to Johnsen, all of the non-clip-fed rifle descriptions, including a Mauser description and excluding an Italian or clip-fed rifle description, were reported by NBC News in rapid succession. Were it common knowledge that Carcanos use clips, and that Mausers, Enfields and Arisakas do not, Owens' news film, and Allen's and Beers' wire-service photos showing the clip in the rifle would have stopped not only the Mauser reports, but all of the earlier reports, if not prevented them. In 1905 when this caliber was adopted in Germany, the breech block of the Mauser 1898 was stamped with the "S" to indicate that the new standard caliber 7.92 ammunition was required. www.acorn.net /jfkplace/09/fp.back_issues/19th_Issue/gtds_3.html   (7434 words)

Repeating rifle: Encyclopedia topic A repeating rifle is a single barreled rifle (rifle: A shoulder firearm with a long barrel and a rifled bore) containing multiple rounds of ammunition (ammunition: Projectiles to be fired from a gun) (consisting of primer, powder, and bullet contained in a cartridge). The cartridges and clip are inserted as a unit into a fixed magazine within the rifle, and the clip is traditionally ejected by the rifle upon firing or chambering the final chamber. Repeating rifles were a significant advance over the preceding breech loaded single shot rifles when used for military combat as they allowed a much greater rate of fire. www.absoluteastronomy.com /reference/repeating_rifle   (1225 words)

No.1 Mark 3 in 1907, it was lighter and handier than the long Lee-Enfield, was sighted for the new Mark 7.303 ammunition, had the desired clip feed facility (or "charger loading", as the British termed it) and possessed an excellent set of open sights, which could now be readily zeroed. Supposedly, during a battle the soldiers ran out of ammunition, stuck knives into the muzzles of their guns and charged the enemy.

THE ENERGIZER RIFLE: M-14 Sniper Rifle Though not as consistent as either of the current bolt action rifles, the M25 is nonetheless very accurate out to 500 yards and has the advantage of not only carrying 4 times the ammunition of either of the bolt-action rifles, but has much faster multiple shot times. Unlike other internal-magazine service rifles of the period -- which could be reloaded with rounds still in the magazine -- the M1's internal 8-round clip could not be reloaded until the 8th and final round was fired and the empty clip ejected. Both rifles trace their roots to the Remington 700 bolt-action system, with the only significant difference being that the Army's rifle incorporates a "long" bolt, whereas the M40 uses a "short" bolt design. www.military.com /soldiertech/0,14632,Soldiertech_M14,,00.html   (1192 words)

Sweden, British, USA, German and Japanese Bofors 40 mm/56 (1.57") Model 1936 1) The practical rate of fire for clip-fed water-cooled guns is essentially the same as the cyclic rate, as the clips allow for a continuous ammunition feed and the water jackets keep the barrels from over-heating. 1) Ammunition is held in four round clips.

The Wargamer - Screenshots Feature: Red Orchestra For example, when reloading weapons, there's no indication as to how many bullets are left in the weapon's clip - instead, players must grow accustomed to the size of the clip and properly manage their limited ammunition. Red Orchestra can be downloaded for free from mirrors linked on its official web page, but gamers will need a full version of Unreal Tournament 2004 to play the current version 2.0 (which retails for a little less than $30 and is actually a solid sci-fi FPS in and of itself). The free modification Red Orchestra is as much a product of energetic young amateurs as it is a competitive hunger (note: some of the mod's developers have already moved onto professional projects, including the upcoming Brothers in Arms). www.wargamer.com /articles/redorchestra_screenshots   (801 words)

Concealed carry gets test case: Defense calls it `high noon' for gun-law clause He contends the officer told Pritchett the gun was loaded because bullets were loaded into the ammunition clip, though the clip was not in the gun. Pritchett is a registered gun owner and was carrying the unloaded gun in a hard zipped case that is sold to carry computer disks, according to his lawyer, Walter Maksym of Chicago. If this guy did not have the magazine in the gun, then IMHO, Terry Gainer, the arresting officer, and everyone involved on the arrest should be co-defendants in a wrongful arrest suit, for prosecuting someone for violating what they thought the law should be (rather than what the law actually said). www.freerepublic.com /focus/fr/806842/posts   (1990 words)

The Mannlicher Carcano ammunition clip. It is my understanding that an empty ammunition clip was still attached to the Mannlicher Carcano rifle when it was found, and that there was one bullet in the chamber. It is also my understanding that the ammunition clip was designed to eject automatically after the final round was spring loaded into the rifle chamber.

Gun experts that testified in front of the Warren Commission characterized the Carcano as a cheap, old weapon that was poorly constructed; a rifle that could be purchased for three dollars each in lots of 25. www.acorn.net /jfkplace/09/fp.back_issues/11th_Issue/guns_dp.html   (11171 words)

M1 Garand Rifle Criticisms of the M1 are its weight, limited ammunition supply, the fact that single rounds could not be pushed in (8 round clip, or nothing), although this is actually possible with some difficulty. The M1 Garand is a full blown combat rifle with maxiumum range of 3,200 meters and maximum effective range of 400 meters.....or the greatest distance at which the weapon can be expected to fire accurately to inflict casualties or damage.

Weaponry - The M1 Garand Most important was the increase in rate of fire, limited only by the proficiency of the soldier in marksmanship and his dexterity in inserting eight round clips of ammunition into the weapon.      The M1 rifle was described in military manuals as "a gas-operated, clip-fed, air-cooled, semi-automatic shoulder weapon." The design incorporated a spring-loaded piston operating within a gas cylinder mounted on the end of the barrel.
