the names of magazines in the
bullet ammo category go like this:
- firearm magazine
- piercing rounds magazine
- uranium rounds magazine
notice how they're all named
[qualifier] rounds magazine except for the first. for shotgun shells, cannon shells and rockets, this kind of pattern holds with no exception for the “base” item (except for
atomic bomb, which is understandable), so
firearm magazine is definitely the odd one out.
i propose to rename
firearm magazine to
rounds magazine (or just
magazine) to rectify this anomaly.

Maybe "standard rounds magazine" or something. But just "rounds magazine" sounds weird to my ear.

Just "magazine" sounds best!

Yeah, but I think adhering to the "rounds magazine" pattern is the whole point of the suggestion. EDIT: I just noticed that OP also suggested "magazine" as an option, so disregard this.
To be honest, I still think "firearm magazine" is just fine and maybe best. It makes it clear at the very beginning of the game what "magazines" are for.

Except they can be used on vehicle weapons, which are not firearns!
Still not as bad as putting an exoskeleton in a tank though...
