    All this could be solved with a mass petition to change mag limits to 10-15 rounds, provided we get a conservative government in who might listen to a petition. (i know i'm in my own dream land)

    10 rounds in all semi auto firearms no matter what they are seems quite reasonable. I'd love 10 shots as designed with my SKS and SVT

    On another of your points, anyone who owns a 10/22 mag has NOTHING to prove with respect to when it was originally designed and manufactured -- that rests w/ the Crown.

    "produced and purchased"? Nothing in the regs speaks to when an item was purchased...or how it was packaged; or labeled; or marketed...
    I assume people were referring to the S&W MP15-22 rimfire rifle/pistol which had a lot of magazines floating around the country before the pistol was introduced/known about, that had to be either repinned, replaced, or destroyed.

    The S&W MP15-22 pistol doesn't seem to be "commonly available" either 5 register pistols don't seem like a lot, unless commonly available means it is currently being produced.

    Which might open up another line of questioning, if S&W stopped making MP15-22 "pistols" are they no longer commonly available?

I asked a lot of questions back when they talked about importing them, and am satisfied that they are legal as per the law. Never mind the fact that RCMP initially approved them. I am sure Barton's has more to lose here than anyone. Lets not crucify them. I don't recall any of you wanting to sue anyone when the 858 and Swiss Arms got prohibed.
    How so? From my perspective it's a made up term. Show me examples of this term being used within the Firearms industry.

    The Smith mags in question were for a rimfire rifle. Some time later Smith introduced the pistol; which as far as I am aware, has been discontinued.

    Why according to Barton's is the lab saying they had no knowledge of this product when Barton's says they were working closely with the rcmp to get these approved before. Reduction of mag capacity must be permanent according to the law (it specifies riveting is ok) so how can these be legal of the mag block can be removed even if it ends up being kosher and actually a pistol mag

    Funny how the very person I randomly quoted as asking a question on a random CCFR Facebook link from a post from 3 months ago turns out to be the legendary Honourable CGN member djosselyn311
    It was the same post on the CCFR Facebook page that we were discussing earlier. There was a comment where a gentleman pointed out that the spacer looked completely removable without tools, That was one of the 17 replies.

    The Merriam-Webster defines pistol carbine as a pistol, no mention of rifle

    Definition of pistol carbine

    : a pistol that has a removable butt piece and is therefore capable of being used as a pistol or as a carbine

    No, then someone makes a legal 12 round beowulf mag, that would hold 30 .223.

    And a petition would be disregarded, like the suppressor and ar15 ones.

    Agreed, petitions don't do anything here, the supressor and AR15 petitions were both kyboshed
