Exactly. Like the ones that get their panties in a wad when someone says "caliber" instead of "cartridge" or "chambering".

I admit I still can't stand "run" and "weapon system".

What about "clip" and "magazine"?


Even the manufacturers have struggled with that one...

Now wait a minute...think about the possibilities here...a whole new millennialspeak nomenclature. "Bullet heads", now they can define them easily by 'pointy heads' (spitzers in oldspeak), boatheads, round heads, half flat heads, totally flat heads. Why stop there? We can redefine primers as bullet tails, being on the tail end. Powder could be 'bangdust'. But surely it stops there...the 'brass thingy' just doesn't roll off the tongue.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
