With the 20rd body please!
What is the reason that the 20 round bodies can't be pinned/blocked like a normal mag?
They are not available as there is not enough of a demand to build a machine to crimp the bodies. Blocked magazines are not recognized by the RCMP as being legal as the tube has not been modified.
Let me try to rephrase my question then, because I think it was misconstrued:
What is the reason why these LAR 15 20/10 round magazines are crimped instead of riveted.
I won't buy crimped mags, but if you released this same magazine with a rivet (instead of the crimps), then I would buy a bunch.
There are no 10 round that are riveted because the law says they must be designed for pistol use. A riveted mag is simply viewed as an altered rifle magazine. Welcome to Canadian gun laws... it makes no sense .
How does that make sense when we can freely order 33 or 17 round glock mags that are riveted to 10 rounds?A riveted mag is simply viewed as an altered rifle magazine.

For those who don't like the crimp;
What is your beef with crimping?
I am genuinely curious. I have never used crimped mags.
At first glance; They look much nicer than rivets.
Do you have a source on this that I can look at?
I don't see what the difference is between riveting these and crimping them from a manufacturing perspective, as both crimping AND riveting is viewed by the law as a legitimate way to permanently modify a magazine to conform to our current laws & regulations.

There was a thread here not too long ago about this. I'm having a hard time finding it.
Do you remember the result? Was it companies thinking this was the legal requirement? Or was it just to save a few pennies like another member mentioned?
