Hey /k/ Im not a professional at this shit and honestly, Im bamboozled. Is it a clip or a magazine on this imaginary weapon.

Drum.

clip. magazine completely encloses the round and is detachable.
>>
Probably some kind of clip, assuming that half circle thing is where ammo is loaded

Kind of reminds me of how the bastard In metro is reloaded
>>
>>29562251
I'd call it an integrated magazine that is probably loaded with clips

I play Warframe as well and I'm curious.

Here's an animation of how exactly how this works, in case it matters.

They're picatinny rails.

>>29562376
That's a magazine
>>
>>29562251
It's a clip since it doesn't actively feed the gun, it is moved up by the gun then discarded.

Like the Hotchkiss 1914. It would be fed by a flat stiff clip, and would spit it out once all the rounds where gone.

>>29562276
Magazines can be attached too dingus
>>
>>29562412
A clip is a loading aid. It is obvious from the animation posted that it is a detachable feeding tool. It is a magazine.
>>
Clipazine.
>>
>>29562473
clips and magazines arent mutually exclusive

>>29562506
>en bloc magazine
>>
>>29562251
It's called a feed strip.
>>
>>29562376

magazine
>>
>>29562631
In technical terminology yes, they are.
>>
>>29562376
Yeah, that works exactly like a feed strip.
>>
LOL

This thread reminds me of those old math problem riddles, where they'd write the problem incorrectly (usually using a รท sign) and then everyone would argue about order of operations and such.

After reading this, I agree that "feed strip" is the best term, rather than magazine or clip.
