there's no reason for everyone to be a gun expert.
It's about as esoteric a difference as some cars taking diesel and some taking gasoline. Most people know both exist and what they're for, I don't know if I'd call that expertise but I suppose it's slightly above novice. Maybe general gun awareness? In either case your point stands, not everyone can be assumed to be even generally gun aware.
It is more like knowing the difference between a CVT and dual clutch transmission. A clip or magazine is just something that holds bullets for a gun.
that's more like saying "I'm low on gas", and someone berating me saying "your car uses diesel not gasoline.!!!"
Yes, exactly that. That was entirely my point.
I'll be that guy. If I know someone's car takes diesel and I hear them talk about putting gas in it, I'm gonna make sure they mean diesel. Putting diesel in a gas car is a good way to waste a tank of fuel. Putting gas in a diesel car is a good way to waste a diesel engine.
My read on the whole thing is there is a group of us who are just sick of hearing, because we don't care, it's immaterial.
It's been 20 years people have been beating that into our heads. When I came into this comment section, I was literally looking for this particular squabble and I was surprised to have not found it but here we are eventually.
It's one of the most irritating aktchewallys because it will not seem to go away.
