While yes, it is technically a magazine, I can't think of a single gun in CA that uses what's technically called a clip, and over time clip and magazine have really become an interchangeable term among people that were never really into that era of guns, and that includes just about any person playing modern FPS games. Over time interpretations of things can change, I've seen words whose modern usage is actually an antonym to what its original meaning was.

People who are truely intelligent can recognize this, just look at the Supreme Court (that's a USA thing, in case you don't live in the USA and/or aren't familiar with it): a selection of 9 people out of tens or hundreds of thousands is appointed to interpret the words of the Constitution, a roughly 250 year-old document. Those 9 judges look at what the document meant and intended 250 years ago, and translate it to the modern world.
