Is Questar going to pay my legal fees if an RCMP decides to haul away my future black rifles over this? :rolleyes:

I don't think so, but I'd like to know who payed for your labotamy:confused:

I dont question the wisdom of the law, I just follow the law. Law says I can have 10rd mags in any rifle, who am I to question the law?

Questar sacrificed eneugh chickens for the voodoo forensics twits then by all means, keep up the good work.
 
So now I have 3 questions. is this for real - I won't have the RCMP at my door again if I buy these items? then telling me I broke the law. it's not worth loosing my house over legal costs.

my last 2 questions are how much is a 9mm upper selling for & how much for the mags?

RCMP approves it because they go by the LAW, not how they FEEL.
Because the regulation said " magazine for commonly available pistols"

AR pistols are very common in the US.

RCMP goes by the regulations. In fact, I feel that many times RCMP make sound decision, it is just that people who do not understnad the rationale behind the decison accuse the RCMP for being stupid. They have the preconception that RCMP is coming to screw you anyways. In fact, I think RCMP is a rather analytical bunch and deserves more credits

i agree what was at the egining looking pretty random and inconsistant do look more and more understandable now. its inovative dealers that force them to comme up whit more consistant decision. if they continue on this path i can see a fully legal AR-15 30rnds mag in the near future.
a new model build from the ground up to fit a manual repeating gun but that happen to fit in the ar
 
the ar15 uppers are VERY expensive way over priced if you dont allready own one.. can cost you more for an 9mm upper then a whole brand new .223 rifle

the mags were talking about are 49.95 each

the orig colt factory mags are $200. + each here in canada but are WAY better made then any other mag out there (for the 9mm colt system) BUT are 5 rnd only...

well slavex the 5/20 rnders are COLT steel and will never die or break they Americans love the 20 rnders Im guessing they are harder to get/find then the 32 rnd

BUT the ten rnds mags are plastic they worked perfectly but look cheap (in my opinion) as compared to my colt mags. Im sure they will hold up just fine ive read on U.S fourms that guys use them in FA guns without problems

i have 12 colt factory mags (had 22 sold abunch off over the years)
I have 2 20/5 and 10 32/5

I prefer the look and ruggedness of the colt mags they are VERY sturdy and will last a lifetime ive run thousands of rnds thru mine and they lare the same as new besides the finnish wear
 
In my experience the 32's are prone to burping all the rounds out and causing jams, hence the switch to 20's. of course when pinned to 5 it doesn't really matter I guess.
 
OK then to clarify this ... 10 round pistol mags can be used in a restricted rifle without penalty?

If I import a 9mm AR15 pistol such as the one below it will be registered in Canada as a Restricted Rifle with a capacity of 5 rounds.
Does anyone have an AR variant registered as a pistol with the CFC?

The pistol designation was an BATF definition. Does this fly up here?

In any case possession of the mags is clear, would the usage be in question? This is very good news :)

First off, the pictured Bushmaster Carbon 15 Pistol is classified in Canada as a Restricted Handgun. The LAR-15 Pistols are classified in Canada as Handguns.

If you were to look in the FRT for the Carbon 15 Pistol you'll find it lists several different magazine capacities, BUT that's not the determining factor. If the magazine is manufactured for a Pistol/Handgun then it can have a 10 round capacity, if it's manufactured for a rifle then it's limited to 5 rounds.

That's why, when Beretta manufactured a batch of magazines and stamped CX Storm on them those magazines were deemed by RCMP to be "rifle" magazines and were legally limited to 5 rounds maximum.

It's surprising how often this has to be answered, but here's the simple version: you can stuff a Ruger P89 mag (ten rounds 9mm) into a Ruger PC9 carbine, no problem. The PC9's are sold with pistol mags. Same goes for the Beretta Storm and pistol mags. You can stuff any mag into any gun - whether it works or not is your problem - the law controls the mag, not its use.
 
its more than just stamping sommething on the side of a AR mag the mag need to be done on brand new dies and equipement. i am shure sommeone is working on it
 
Speaking of mags. I wonder if mags made for the DPMS pump-action AR could also be imported witht he same type of argument, pretending that they are clearly marked for the pump-action rifles ....
