i normally carry an extra clip.....
a hair clip, stripper clip, or battery clip?
or do you mean
magazine? big difference between the two
this is a clip, technically a stripper clip:
They are used to insert rounds into the gun itself. the MN 1891/30 and SKS are examples of this type of clip system
this is a magazine:
They are used to carry extra rounds in and easily reload either a handgun or rifle.
As far as I know, there are no pistols that use a clip to reload. They all use magazines
