Mag restrictions

Unfortunately no. Imagine you could kill 2 more babies with a 12 round mag instead of 10. Or 2 more puppys. Or 1 baby and 1 puppy... If it saves 1 life...or in this case 2...

Or maybe just reload with a fresh loaded mag, lol.

Seriously 10 round limit is stupid, but I can still have endless amounts of mags :)

which is stupid you can buy the butler creek or shooters ridge 25 rnd mags for the 10/22 sr22r and it will fit in a charger but the good quality bx-25 mags are prohibited devices because of the charger. other stupid thing i have a restrited ar15 in 22lr and i legally have a 50rnd drum from blackdog ?????

the rcmp needs to rething this stuff and allow us to have more then 10 round
 
Pretty goofy law here in the great white north.

10/22 Ruger / Butler Creek mags / BX25 mag issues bother me - makes no sense.

Also Smith and Wesson M&P 15-22 is restricted because of 25 round mag.... yet Pietta PPS-50 with 30 round mag ain't. Plus you can get 50 round drum for that too!

Also at my local gun range, 5 round mag limit doesn't seem to apply on ARs.
 
5. Magazines for semiautomatic handguns which contain more than ten (10) rounds of a different calibre
Magazines designed to contain centrefire cartridges and designed or manufactured for use in a semiautomatic handgun, are limited to 10 cartridges. The capacity is measured by the kind of cartridge the magazine was designed to contain. In some cases the magazine will be capable of containing more than 10 rounds of a different caliber; however that is not relevant in the determination of the maximum permitted capacity.
Example:
Heckler and Koch P7 pistol chambered for 9mm Luger caliber:
The magazine designed for the 40 S&W calibre variant of the pistol will hold 13 cartridges of 9mm Luger calibre and function in the 9mm Luger calibre P7 pistol. This is permissible as the maximum permitted capacity of the 40 S&W calibre magazine must be measured by the number of 40 S&W calibre cartridges it is capable of holding, which is 10 such cartridges in the case of the HK P7 pistol magazine.

5 round limit does apply to the AR15, but most guys use LAR15 pistol mags in their AR15 rifles, hence 10 rounds ('cause it's a pistol mag)

Don't people pay attention in the restricted courses?..........

The next problem is that depending on the instructor, the PAL courses can be every bit as wrong, and frequently are when it comes to properly passing on specific information. Some trainers don't want to look like they're not experts and answer with assumptions of their own, with what they have heard or what BS the local CFO goes by. Some examples I have heard first hand are that the Stakon gun lockers are not considered safes, you can not leave a handgun unattended in a car regardless of it being properly cased for transport, gun racks are illegal now, old glass door gun cabinets are illegal, and .303 Savage ammunition is for Savage made Enfield rifles, .303 Brit is for British made. And other nightmares stories. Which just goes to prove what people hear from those who should be knowledgeable authorities (lets not get started on what many LEOs think) is not always accurate. Checking information twice no matter how dumb the question may seem is quite acceptable in my eyes, especially considering how F****d Canadian gun laws are.
