A term often used in First Person Shooters, originally from the Call of Duty franchise, where players will reload their magazine fed weapons with a new, full magazine after only shooting 1 or 2 rounds.
This is due to the game often getting rid of realism for convenience sake to keep the game fast paced. This will lead to a very common practice many FPS players will develop where instead of how firearms actually work, where you'd only having a certain amount of magazines you can carry that are properly loaded with ammo at a given point and you need to tactfully & swiftly change magazines when engaging in combat the most efficiently you can, you can use a reserve of loose bullets to magically refill your weapon at any given point. This will often develop into a habit, where players, unless engaged in a serious fight, will shoot once, reload, repeat.
Unless the FPS is based on realism, the game will likely have the ability to CoD Reload. Common games you may see this in are Call of Duty, Battlefield, Counter Strike, Team Fortress 2, Siege, Overwatch and Grand Theft Auto.
