Sorry that I was decieved by wrong information. I will never dare to call it a clip again. I will now dig out my old video games, reinstall them to find out which of them gave me the wrong information, that this things are called clips and will write a letter to the publisher in which I demand my money back.
Wow i've never heard anyone claim to get their knowledge from a video game before.

Let this be a lesson to you. Video games, much like movies, are not good sources of information. Most of what they get right is accidental.

I usually try to play my games in English. By doing so I kept in touch with the language in the time before I started to haunt English speaking forums, and I learned plenty new words too (not the ones they teach you in school).

@Antiwhatever

You don't find you choice of words rather arrogant? Someone makes a mistake and you are all over him. So far I had a different view of you.

That was not my intention, but reaing it now, i sohuld have peperd in some smileys to make sure of that. I was trying at show my minor irritation of the misuse of some words in a humorous way and seem to have failed, I apologize.
Unless in a thread about science, try not to take me too seriously.

While we're on the subject of "getting it right", what is a "pet peewee"? Don't tell me PeeWee Herman is on a leash somewhere?

Well, if you take the clip out off it you already have two throws.
Well, it might work OK for shooting squirrels.

As for the movie clip:
Must say, I'm beginning to think all of Germany is gay. Every last damn one of em.

Thats where the ball gag comes in handy.
Though on a slightly more serious note, I dont really know if we have any of thsoe establishments. I know of a few illegal brothels (in my town) and there are sex shops ofcourse, but places where you go for private porn viewings do not exist to the best of my knowledge.

I've heard the same joke about many other pistols.:rotfl:
Honestly, though, is it considered to be inaccurate? I've never had any problems.
I prefer my trusty M1911: Accurate as a thrown baseball for about the same distance and pretty effective as a club too.
