10 round mag for Remington 7600 Long Action

[fuzzy39]

Hi there,
I am just wondering if any of the Dealers or CGN members know if 10 round mags for the Rem 7600 LA are available (and legal) in Canada. If anyone has a couple for a reasonable price I wouldn't mind picking a couple up. I have a 35 Whelen Carbine in 7600 that I would like to loads some pistol rounds for. A 10 round mag with this would be nice for gopher hunting. Thanks in advance.

The older 742 and 760 shared the same aftermarket Colyer 8 round magazine and although the OEM 742 magazine has a bolt release on it the Colyer mag was advertised as made for both semi and pump.

That makes it prohibited as I read the law unless it's pinned to 5.

Don't know if that mag would fit your gun but they are around.

All of the ten round mags are marketed as being for both the 740 series and 760 series of rifles, and thus would be pinned to five rounds.

Here's a thought. The solution to your problem might be in Australia. Their gun laws are worse than ours; and that leads to the curious situation where they can't have pump shotguns but pump rifles are fine. They basically can't have auto loaders. That leads to fire-power loving Aussies using Remington pumps where you'd sort of expect an AR, or around here any of a number of pop rivited autoloaders. There is a definite market for extended mags for 7600s, made and sold by and to people who have never seen a 7400 but like to pimp out pump rifles.

You could start by googling Triple K and Lucky 13, that would get you started. I don't have a clue what it takes to get them here, but big mags for 7600s without mentioning 7400s do exist.

NO.

As the magazine is marketed for both Remington pumps and semi's, the RCMP classify it as a semi mag, and it needs to be pinned.

Do an internet search on legal magazine capacities and you'll see the RCMP specifically address this.

Sorry.

You are right of course and for some guys with smaller calibers it might be a nuisance...my pump is a 35 Whelan and I think 5 rounds is perfectly adequate for my hunting purposes!
Although...the Rem 7615 is a pump action and I "believe" that 10 rd mags of a specific type are approved for that rifle....

Not if the magazine is being marketed as being for both the pump and the semi auto rifles. The magazine is prohibited, regardless of the firearm that you use it in.
