no one said we can ever eliminate all gun violence. You are either are in favor of reducing mass slaughter, or you're not.
I just went to the Academy Sporting Goods website, and checked out the Remington, Ruger, and Rossi bolt-action and semi-auto hunting rifles.
None of them had high capacity 30 round or 45 round ammo clips.
Those hunting rifles had ten round clips.
If you need 30 rounds to shoot a deer, you are a terrible shot who shouldn't even be shooting a rifle, and you may even be a threat to other hunters and hikers.
In fact, you have no legitimate civilian need for a high capacity ammo magazine which is a military innovation for the battlefield conditions of killing other humans.

Bans on high capacity ammunition clips are constitutional. Supreme Court has repeatedly refused to overturn local ordinances banning them.
I don't see any connection between keeping a military battlefield innovation out of the hands of civilians, and a person having the sovereign right to control their own body.

So you assert judicial precedence and case law mean nothing, and whenever the Supreme Court has more mainstream and liberal justices, Roe v Wade can just be reinstated, and we can go back to the pre-2008 judicial maxim that gun ownership is not a private individual right.
It's obvious you know little about firearms.
This is a clip of ammunition:
This is a magazine holding ammunition
Clips make it convenient to load magazines which are then used in the firearm to feed rounds for firing.
Aside from that, that cat is already out of the bag. Anyone can 3D print magazines for firearms now, and getting the springs made is a snap.

I agree. And if you're careless and your weapons are stolen or otherwise misused because you did not secure them, your insurance policy won't pay to cover your loss -- and you won't be able to buy another policy (or gun) for two years.
It wouldn't have stopped Murderboy Rittenhouse though. He got an older friend to buy his murder weapon for him. So add a rider to that -- if you buy a gun and insurance policy for someone else, YOU are criminally liable for any crimes they commit with it.

A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

In movies, television, popular culture clip has always used colloquially and interchangeably with magazine.
It wasn't until recent years that gun huggers started freaking out and having schoolgirl meltdowns about the proper use of grammar.
The point still stands that as a civilian you have no legitimate need for a 30 or 45 round magazine. Being able to masturbate over your Rambo fantasies is not sufficient justification for you to need to have access military innovations designed for battlefield conditions.
