Is there a gun expert in here????? :D
Clips are chargers...aids for loading several rounds into a magazine at once.
E.g. stripper clips, which are little strips of metal formed to hold the rim of five or so cartridges (a magazine load). You put the clip into a slot in the receiver above the magazine (in the case of a fixed magazine) or the magazine itself and push down on the top cartridge and all the rounds slip into the magazine. You then toss (or pocket) the clip.

Ride it like you think owning it matters.
Ahhhhh...motorcycles and guns. Now if we can only talk about guitars!
I've got a 9mm Beretta and a Mosseburg 500 pistol-grip for home defense. I thought about getting my concealed license permit but am scared to carry a gun with me. I carry a HUGE knife in my car in case something unfortunate should arise. I hate to say I have had to produce it twice. Luckily I didn't bring a knife to a gun fight!

CHECK YOUR TIRE PRESSURE REGULARLY!!!
You shouldnt be afraid to carry a gun.
My primary carry gun (with my permit, of course) is a H&K USPc .45 with the LEM trigger. No manual safety. You just pull and go. So no external safties anywhere. My secondary / summer carry is the Glock 19 in 9mm. Once again, no manual safety, the trigger is the safety in a way. Pull and go. Always carry with a round loaded in the chamber, or else the pistol is just a paperweight. I was intimidated at first about carry with a live round, but all you need is a good holster to protect the trigger guard, and really, the real safety is between the ears.
To answer a question about "charging" I think you mean bullets? Basically, a brass, steel, or aluminum casing has a primer in the center of the bottom of the casing. The primer acts as a spark to ignite the smokeless gun powder (what the guns firing pin strikes). The powder inside the casing exploded, and is contained inside the casing. The bullet is then propelled forward, and starts to spin, aided by the rifling of the barrel (remember the beginning of the james bond movies, remember the swirls? thats the barrels rifling, it creates the bullet to spin, thus providing stability). Because the bullet/gun powder behind it is trapped within the barrels chamber, the pressure from that action causes the bullet to move so fast. I hope this makes sense...it cant get much simpler.

What about that mercury charge thing???? You have any idea???? I don't lolIm sure this is a lot to take in, but if you have any other questions I have many answers.
Must be because of the idea of a girl loving guns .... Never mind, that's normal in your country. Just weird in VietnamYa'll are scaring me.
I agree with that and always try to be tough enough to protect my own family (Too much for a girl, maybe That's what I hate about being a girl hahaha). My mom doesn't like that idea and keeps complaining :"why can't you just be a girly girl and do what girls do."I'll take my own protection into my own hands
I dont really care for the 5.56/.223 round as much as I do the 7.62x51/.308 (M14), but they are fun plinkers,
Okay, I just don't know how to thank you guys .... Except saying Thank you so much hehehe
