MAGAZINE , primarily a warehouse for goods or merchandise (Arab. makhzan, a storehouse, from khazana, to
store
  up). In Morocco makhzan (or maghzen) has come to be used as the name of the government. The Spaniards adopted the Arabic in the form magacen, and the
English
  form comes through the older
French
  magazin,
modern
  magasin. The meaning of a storehouse or large shop, common in
French
 , is rare in
English
  except in the military use of the
term
  for a building for the storage of explosives and ammunition. It is applied to the chamber of a repeating rifle or
