Thats not quite accurate and it does sound like you are the one who hasn't taken the time to read the law, probably like most of the people who don't understand whats going on with the 10/22 issue.

The law states that a magazine is prohibited if :



This in fact asks two questions :

1- Is the Ruger 10/22 25-round mag capable of containing more than 10 cartridges of the type for which the magazine was originally designed?
The answer is YES, it was designed to contain 25 cartridges

and

2- Is it designed OR MANUFACTURED for use in a semi-automatic handgun commonly available in Canada?
The answer is YES, it is (also) manufactured for use in the pistol version of the 10/22 that is commonly available in Canada

answering yes to both these questions means the magazine is in fact prohibited.
Unfortunately, its not the RCMP's fault, but rather the manufacturer's fault for releasing a pistol version of the rimfire rifle in Canada.

Clearer?

Youza.

The butler creek 25 round mags where designed for the ruger 10/22 long before the charger pistol was even thought of. End of story

Not end of story.

The standard set out by the regulations isn't strictly about "design". It also says "OR MANUFACTURED FOR".
It might be convenient for your stance to ignore specific words that are black on white in the law, but it doesn't make you right.

Is the Charger "commonly" available? I have never seen one for sale. Let's be realistic here. There is simply not a handgun in Canada that is commonly available that accepts 10/22 25 rnd mags.

it is also manufactured for the 10/22.

You do realize that makes no difference, right?

It is also manufactured for use in a pistol. And as long as thats true, the law is clear.

It mentions the 10/22 model, and the charger pistol is most definitely a 10/22 receiver. Or are you argueing it isn't?

They are not illegal at 25 rounds.....RCMP "opinion" is not LAW

The Bx25 is illegal at 25rds. They were designed AFTER the charger came to market, and are both designed and manufactured for use in both the 1022 and charger. There is no grey area on the Bx25 magazines.

There is grey area on the butler creek ones though. They were designed long before the charger came to market.
