What is another word for scratch cradle?
Pronunciation: [skɹˈat͡ʃ kɹˈe͡ɪdə͡l] (IPA) 
Scratch cradle is a term that originated in the 18th century referring to a framework or device used to hold ammunition for guns on board ships. It was so named because the cartridges were made by scratching a line on the paper, then folding and crimping the paper around the powder. As language and technology have evolved, so have the synonyms for the term. Some alternative phrases include 'ammunition rack,' 'gun rack,' 'cartridge holder,' 'magazine rack,' or 'round clip.' Each of these offers a more modern and specific description of the object and its use, and are commonly used in military and firearms contexts.
