Some of you might have already heard about the SRM semi-automatic tactical Shotgun as it has been out for about a year and a half. We finally have the chance to play around with one in person and are quite impressed. The shotgun is relatively light weight and the operation is intuitive. Unlike many conventional semi-automatic shotgun, the SRM is utilizes a blow back system instead of being gas operated.

The biggest attraction to SRM is the way it arranges the feeding devices. It uses a 4 round magazine tube as its main feeding device. 4 separate magazines tubes are bundled together to hold 16 shells in total. To switch from one magazine tube to another, the user has to manually rotate the magazine tube by a push lever. This mechanism is recognized as a 4 round magazine in the state of California already.


Currently there are 3 versions available. 10" bbl ( 2 rounds per tube) 13" (3 rounds per tube) and 18.5" (4 rounds per tube)

So... Rotary magazine... Interesting...

It is not a rotary magazine. It has 4 magazine tubes that are bundled together for convenience, the same idea as duct taping 4 5-round AR mags together. This is the view held by California where magazine more than 10 rounds are not allowed.

Even better, I like it a lot.
 
RCMP has already ruled on this particular magazine.

They call it a 16 round capacity magazine. It would need to be pinned to 5 for Canada.

So basically you would have one fully functional tube, one tube plugged so it can only hold one shell, and the other two tubes blocked completely.

Boo.

I thought the XRail worked differently than this. Is there a ruling, in writing, specifically mentioning this shotgun?

If only there were some entity in Canada who stood up for our rights. An organization who would take the RCMP to task for their unilateral/blanket "rulings" (they are not a court and, according to the constitution or Canada, never can be. Therefore the RCMP should never be allowed to make these decisions in the first place...). Oh yeah, didn't I JUST GIVE MONEY TO THE NFA? What are they doing with it???
