That would make more sense, wouldn’t it? I always wondered how you were supposed to load something after you locked it. “Locked and Loaded”, as a statement of readiness makes sense, but ordering someone to “Lock and Load” seems like a receipe for confusion.

I concur.

I always thought it referred to locking a new clip in and then loading the first bullet in the chamber?

Damn Wally, “clip” and “bullet”? You don’t know the size of the can of worms you just opened (this is going to be ugly).
Okay boys, fresh meat!

Ummm,, I don’t pretend to know anythin about guns, but wouldn’t “Load & Cock” be more accurate?
….mmmmm.. loaded cock.

Unless yer shootin’ blanks.

At the risk of getting called a fanboy yet again. It’s not a clip. It’s a magazine, and……ah forget it
Do what now?

The phrase “lock and load” refers to “locking” the magazine in the weapon and “loading” the first round in the chamber (“charging” the weapon).

What is the word for when you make the bullet go down the long bit and go forward into someone.

Hey gor, looks like i got away with it!! And yes, ok, its a MAGAZINE, my bad but the statement still stands. And it would appear i was correct anywho
Besides, bullet isn’t that incorrect, if you want to sound all fancy ass and use the term “Round” then by all means go for it!

You did get away with it. Good for you, but unless you are planning to use a sling-shot a bullet would only be part of the whole (a “Round”, which is not a fancy term, but is a correct discription, saying “bullet” is sorta like calling a car a “tire” since a tire is part of a car).
