Re: Gun 'mistakes' in Books, TV, and Movies - feel free to post your own

:iagree:
Maybe someone more knowledgeable than I can chime in. I don't recall if it was this or another forum where it
was stated that the terms clip & magazine were commonly interchanged for years. The differentiation started
around the end of the Vietnam war if I remember correctly. Some of us that are 'older' still sometimes flip flop
the terms.

Keep in mind that most writers of books/movies take 'dramatic license/liberties' with the story line and are meant
to be entertaining and an escape from reality.

In the Butch & Sundance movie with Newman and Redford they had those new fangled revolvers that fired
anywhere from six rounds all the way up to, what I believe, was a high of 15 or 17 without a reload.
