By law you are allowed to only use 5 for rifle but....
If the magazine was designed for 20/30 etc.. rounds then you have to pin them at 5. If the magazine of 10 was designed for a pistol then you can legally use it on the rifle.

Here's the not so funny thing.... The moment you insert the mag, it is now prohibited!!!!!!
But you can still use it!

Who comes up with this sh!t?
Obviously someone who doesn't know anything about firearms

No, a pistol mag is not prohibited if it fits in a rifle. And the rifle isn't prohibited either. Firearm and magazine classifications are two seperate entities in the code. Magazines are simply classified by what they were designed and intended to be used in, not what firearm they HAPPEN to be usable with.

That is how it was explained to me. It never made sense!
Thanks!
 
I find even with 5-rounds you can fit a few hundred bullets in.... As long as you don't put the entire "Cartridge" in you're doing fine!

It's amazing what you can do with JUST component bullets!
