I designed, intended, and manufactured a new firearm called the 223 cardboard. It feeds from my patented box magazine. Legal, right?
if its origibally designed, intended and manufactured to hold 223 cartridges and fired from a semi rifle then max 5 of 223, a pistol then max 10 of 223.
If that box somehow (doesnt matter how) fits unmodified into a say a 9mm rifle and you can somehow (doesnt matter how) fit 23 cartriges of 9mm in that unmodified box while it still legally holds 5 of 223 , thats completely legal. The magazine holding 23 cartirdges of 9mm is legally irrelevant
Yep
Has the Baywolfe magazines bin put on the prohibited list on Canadian firearm center wedsite ?
Last time I checked I never seen anything say the Baywolfe magazines were prohibited or restricted
Silencers And blowguns are still prohibited but nothing about 5 round Baywolfe magazines
Until it is put on The prohibited listen on the Canadian firm center website don't worry about it opinions obviously mean nothing

News to me. Yesterday (by mistake) I loaded 10 rounds of 5.56 into an XCR 7.62x39 pistol mag. I noticed the printing on the mag before trying to shoot, but they sat int he mag just fine. Maybe tomorrow I'll see if they will feed. They look like they will.
you should direct your question to the guy who said it is on the FRT table, I have not seen it yet, that is if in fact it does exist
Kind of
It is a fact that a single manufacturer was re-manufacturing 556 mags into .50 beo mags that the RCMP correctly deemed to be prohibited.
That turned into all .50 beo mags are prohibited by the large group of people on CGN that blindly parrot any BS they hear from anyone be it TV, gun store clerk or secretaries at the CFC. And here we are.

You know the CFC website is not the law right?
And what the put on it means nothing, and it tell you such on every page
Shawn
What in the world could have the civilian done to shut that officer down? This officer believed his own bs and/or didn't give two sh$ts because what can be done at that stage if he wants to charge you?
Can't argue with him!!! and tell him that no where in the law does it say that by matching a pistol mag to a rifle you now have a prohibited device.
I'd like to know what recourse do we have when that sh$t goes down? The letter would be a good start? yes? no?
When an officer is so blind, all you can do is be silent, only ask to speak to and retain a lawyer prior to speaking any further, even if that means spending the weekend in jail because your lawyer is not available.
Do not give a statement of any sort without speaking to your own legal counsel and having them present if a written statement vetted by your lawyer is not good enough to satisfy the crown.
Police have the upper hand on the average person and will use coercion, lies and other tactics to get you to say things that are not true or just simply twist your words while writing a deposition of your statement and ask you to sign it.
Any good criminal lawyer will tell you not to talk to police if you are being questioned or detained on a matter beyond what your legal requirements are (Identify yourself)
It is unfortunate it has to be this way, but it is too costly not to follow such guidelines in todays world.
Worst-case you have to go to the local RCMP office and recover your legal property and the officer would be getting his ass chewed by his superiors
If the Baywolfe magazine was on the prohibited list on the RCMP website then that would be different matter
You always have the option of just using pined 5 round mag's if you want to play it safe for me I'm sticking with XCR pistol magazines I like them better for hunting
It is more than one single case of the SFSS publishing their opinion, I quoted part of the email Armtac got when they sent in a sample of a magazine made from scratch in Asia earlier in this thread.
I would agree it would be overreacting if it was only the one case where the guys got caught re branding them, but that opinion has been given to others in writing as well as a large shipment being stopped from entering Canada (also posted/confirmed on this forum by the retailers who pre sold them and couldn't deliver)
I mist that oops
original AA magazines have made it numerous times in this country since then
Which does not change the fact that .50 beo mags are 100% legal
And that re-manufacturing a 556 mag to .50 beo is still illegal.

We've run out of days for a " Are Beo mags legal?" thread. Then again, no one's mentioned shooting into space for a while...
