    Can you import baseplates and bodies in separate shipments I wonder.

    No. When 90%+ of your market is US, a few mags being prohibited from exportation to canada is the least of your concern.

    Keep this in mind:
    Canada is probably less than 10% or IRG's sales
    Magazines are probably less than 10% of IRG's sales
    Less than 10% of magazines are now prohibited from exportation.

    Therefore, about 0.1% of IRG's sales will be affected. Sucks for Canadians, but it's a drop in an ocean.

    Purely Canadian distributors can go to mech-Gar or others if they want. It would make a lot more sense for them than it would for IRG.

    That's what i'm concerned about as I ordered afew P90 magazines afew months back and are waiting for them. When I called them afew days ago they are awaiting for confirmation about them as even the 30rd magazines are technically 50rd magazines blocked. Luckily I have 10 of the 50rd magazines already but I wanted to keep afew set aside as they can be hard to find.

    You should be fine, but that said we do not know if the importation of HC mags into the US will be effected but reading into it:

    "Section 38 of the AECA allows DDTC to restrict the end use of USML defense articles in order to “control imports and exports of defense articles in furtherance of world peace and security and foreign policy of the U.S.”

    We would venture to say the importation of these magazines will also be effected.

    We will keep you posted.

    Flat rate shipping to Canada is 25.00USD on all accessory and ammunition orders regardless of quantities ordered. Firearms are exported to Canada at a flat rate of 25.00USD per firearm.

    You guys realize FN makes a 30-round PS90 mag? Just order those since they'll be 5 rounders in the end anyways.

    The problem is the 30 rounders even the 10 rounders are actually 50 rounders, the magazine body even says 50 rounds. They just have a plug on the baseplate plugging the body restricting the amount of rounds you can insert.
