A device that aids in the filling of a magazine.
Commonly mistaken for the item 'assault magazine'. Though to be fair, a magazine is only an 'assault magazine' when you use it to assault someone. A magazine, either detached or attached, holds the ammunition for a particular firearm. A clip inserts into the magazine in order to fill it quicker. A magazine is not a clip, and a clip is not a magazine.

AK-47's do not use 'assault clips'. They use standard 30 capacity magazines. Common examples of firearms that use clips include Mauser Broomhandles, the SKS and the M1 Garand.
