    I saved a PM containing all of this info in a word document at work. I can post it when I return in a week.

    The long and short of it is, the Ontario Hunting Regs. say to follow the Federal Gun Regs when it comes to magazine capacity. It is found on page 23 on the top left just above the shaded paragraph in the new 2012 ON hunting regs. The Federal exemption for the Garand are out there in the Regulations somewhere, but I can't seem to find them now.

    Found it:

    (2) Paragraph (1)(a) does not include any cartridge magazine that

    (a) was originally designed or manufactured for use in a firearm that

    (i) is chambered for, or designed to use, rimfire cartridges,


    (ii) is a rifle of the type commonly known as the “Lee Enfield” rifle, where the magazine is capable of containing not more than 10 cartridges of the type for which the magazine was originally designed, or


    (iii) is commonly known as the U.S. Rifle M1 (Garand) including the Beretta M1 Garand rifle, the Breda M1 Garand rifle and the Springfield Armoury M1 Garand rifle;

    You know you are a real gunnut when you start practicing trigger control on power tools.

    Hey Dan is there any chance you'll be getting any of the other rifles James River Armory makes down the line? Or is it going to only be the M1's?

    I care, what's it to you? Might not make it more desirable to you? How would you have any idea of my intentions or the fact I have enough SA rifles and thirsty for a different flavored kool aid.

    I would have bought one
    There's Mil-spec, and then there's Gunnutz-spec.
    One is stringent, the other contains nuts.

    Because its a rebuilt commercial rifle now, and there is no collector value?

    The price seems a little steep, you could pay their US price and pay to get it exported and it would still be cheaper than Wanstalls price. I suppose you pay that for convenience.

    M1's can have an 8 round en-bloc clip, I use mine on the range all the time.
    They have a exception to the law.
