detachable magazine

Swappable bullet container

A detachable magazine is a container for ammunition that can be inserted into and removed from a firearm, allowing for quick reloading.

Unlike fixed magazines that are built into the weapon, detachable magazines let shooters swap in a fresh supply of cartridges without manually loading each round.

They are standard on most modern semi-automatic pistols and rifles.
