Well in most movies that have guns, they rarely actually say the name of the guns or what kind of ammo they use. And it would take away the mood when someone just go on talking about his Glock 17 9mm.

I mean, I was in my Corrections class with SERT speakers. They were all wearing Glock 17s, but they refer to them as Glock 9mm. So most cops wouldn't actually call their guns by their full name, like my local police all uses Sig P229s, but the call them Sig 9mm or just SIGs. But of course I have never heard anyone in a police or military profession that call a mag a clip.

Unless knowing guns is your thing, you wouldn't care less.
