Ill buy one if that's what it takes.. Assuming the uppers are interchangable with a stardard lower ... Which I can't see why not

I guess i was asking because I've never heard of this caliber of mags, so the only reason why there would be hype on these would be if it held more of another type of round, say 5.56.

What is with all the hype regarding these mags?

I understand your frustration with that person's particular post, but please there's no need for such language.

I know quite a few people have been disappointed that they haven’t been able to purchase Alexander Arms .50 Beowulf magazines. We tried to bring in as many as possible and keep the price reasonable, but the reality of the US market has left us with unflexible high prices and some serious brokerage fees. So, we’d like to show off some pictures that should brighten up everyone’s day. These pictures were taken at the factory today and represent over 5 months of hard work and cooperation between E-Lander and Northern Republic Magazine.

Unfortunately, there’s still more work to do. When this magazine arrives in Canada (next week) it will need to be sent off to the RCMP for their final nod of approval before DFAIT will issue our massive import permit. Let's all hope the review process is a swift one!

Remove "AR-15" writtings.

And if it gets approved by the RCMP, well my friend, you're gonna make a lot of money with our fellow Canadians black firearms lovers ! loll ;)

This.

I think this is critically important. The idea is that the mag is solely designed for the .50 Beo rifle and to feed that particular round. The RCMP will do mental gymnastics to try to give you a no-go. Even when advertising the mags, every effort should be made to avoid implying that the mag is designed to feed the 50Beo and 223 interchangeably. Again, this is a mag strictly designed to feed .50 Beowulf.

Boy do I sound paranoid, but I am a product of my environment.

Nope. You're right, and I'm sure NRM is very aware of this. I'm sure they researched the product well before they invested business capitol on the project.
 
You're right,

Less is More.

The fact of the matter is that the Alexander Arms .50 Beowulf AR15 upper is part of an AR15 rifle.

Honesty goes a long way, and attempting to play games with the government is what sets projects back. We've been in discussion with various government bodies already and this is the text that we have selected for laser engraving. We feel that this leaves no doubt as to what the magazines are. The magazines are 100% designed and intended for use in AR15 rifles chambered in .50 Beowulf.

IMO - Having the 'AR-15 text' is unnecessary, Alexander Arms does not even put that engraving on their magazines. We have approved AA Magazines in the country without 'AR-15 rifle' engraved anywhere (As you are aware of course). What you are saying is completely logical but I have a feeling the words AR-15 may come back to haunt you/us unfortunately - I hope I'm wrong.
 
Guys lets give NR Mags a little credit here...remember they have devoted 5 months and their own capital on this project...I'm sure they have considered the labelling very, very carefully. Lets relax and let them do their thing...another hundred posts of, "yeah, don't put anything AR related on the mag" is not going to help.

This. No different than discussing how many 9mm rounds fit in a 40S&W mag. Very much legal.

As long as the mags are designed an manufactured soley with the intent of using 50 cal rounds all is good.

Well, yes, it's legal now. That doesn't mean that this can't change if someone in the media, or an anti with a large audience, got wind of it and decided to make it an issue. Making it easier for such people to become aware of this gear, and why we so desperately want to get our hands on it, will only make that outcome more likely.

I agree that it is wise to be discreet about this issue.
 
And that is why you are the importer and not armchair know it all posting advice naively assuming the RCMP is clueless.

Wishing you get the import permits and make lots of well deserved ROI ASAP.
