A clip is a strip of metal that holds rounds of ammunition for insertion into a magazine.
A clip goes into a magazine, but a magazine does not go into a clip.

A device, generally a strip of metal or plastic, used to hold loose cartridges together to facilitate faster loading of a rifle or magazine. A clip has no spring or follower, therefore a magazine is NOT a clip.
The M1 Garand is fed by an 8 round en bloc clip.
