Magazines. Not clips. You use clips on some revolvers and on fixed magazine semi automatic rifles. AR15s use magazines.

A clip on a revolver? I thought revolvers only had cylinders.

Some revolvers are chambered for rimless cartridges, .45 ACP, 9 MM, etc, which require a moon clip or half moon clip to hold the rounds in the cylinder. More info here:
