dumdum bullet
A bullet with deep user-made cuts in the tip. The cuts help the dumdum bullet fragment into chunks on impact, causing severe injuries and bleeding on a scale normal bullets would be incapable of. By definition, dumdums are less accurate than regular ammo.
Dumdum bullets are illegal for use in warfare and may be illegal for civilian ownership in the United States.
Also see dum dum.

clip
That fighter jet flew so low it clipped the tree line with one of its wings.
We were taking heavy fire from down the street and a bullet clipped me in the shoulder.
Jimmy clipped the curb while he was parking his car.

m249
The Fabrique Nationale M249 is the US Army's standard-issue squad automatic weapon (SAW/light machine gun). It fires the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge, and can accept either linked ammo or M-16 compatible magazines. It weighs 23 lbs loaded, 20 empty. It's intended for suppressive fire, not accurate point fire, and therefore comes equipped with a built-in bipod for spraying Charlies at long range. Standard US military doctrine is to issue one M249 for every 4-man fire team (two or three M249s per squad).
The M249 Para variant features a folding stock and a shorter barrel. It is designed for paratroopers, who naturally prefer its compact dimensions. However, the Para is most often spotted in the hands of hyperactive 13-year-olds playing that Counter-Strike game.

Corporal, I see dirty terrorists coming up the street. Keep their heads down with your SAW while I go around back and flank em with the rest of the squad.
chaff
Highly reflective debris launched from the back of aircraft to confuse radar guided missiles. Chaff is usually launched together with pairs of flares, which throw off infra-red guided missiles.
The F-15 pilot performed evasive turns and started dumping chaff & flares as soon as he heard the missile warning beep.
