So here's the thing - in the real world when you invent something, you get to name it whatever you want. And when Hasbro invented the Nerf magazine, they called it a "clip". You're actually lucky they didn't name it the Three-Nozzled Bloozer. Then we'd all be arguing that the bloozer doesn't actually have three nozzles. And the bloozer isn't really a bloozer, it's a magazine. But the MagStrike actually does take a bloozer, although it doesn't have any nozzles, etc, etc, etc, ad nauseam.

You guys can cringe all you want. In the Nerfiverse it's called a clip. Deal with it. It's printed on the boxes, in the user manuals, on the websites, in the store flyers, on the shelf tags, and in all the glossy marketing propaganda. You should probably google a thing called "nomenclature". You're going to need it. Otherwise the rest of your life is going to be very, very difficult.
