That B3 rifle is that the 7.62 x 39 model that everyone states will take a AK47 mag?
Australian International Arms M10 B2 Match

No, the B3 is a limited production of 250 using minigun barrels good for over 100,000 rounds. The barrels were far to expensive to produce, so when they ran out, that was it.
You are talking about provincial hunting regs, we are talking about federal firearms laws, which are not the same thing. Modify an M14 mag and it will still be considered an M14 mag and a prohibited device.
30 round mags are not banned unless they are for a semi-auto centerfire firearm. Mags for all rimfire and manual action centerfire have no limits.

Ya true but where else are you going to be with a rifle the only place would be hunting or the range and the ranges are up and down with that also.If it is fedral why are the provinces allowed to set there own limits isn't that a double standard.
Anyway whatever blows there hair back i will stick to the mag it came with the only time you would need more is if you are in the mil.

It is also in .308.
Yeah, Wolverine recently got about 50 in from England. They're all gone but do show up for sale from time to time.
Marstar and wolverine both had them at some point Marstar still has the sport and reg.models in stock $799
You could still use them. Extremely durable, and no matter what condition, there are still only 250 out there.
Funny, on other forums a few people said they recieved a B3 instead of the B2 they ordered. Someone got roasted over that for sure!
The problem with that is the M14 mag is for a centerfire semi-auto and is subject to the 5 round limit. Modifying it to work in the AIA doesn't change the fact that it started life as an M14 mag and will be considered a prohibited device if the capacity is greater than 5 rounds.
The provincial limits are Wildlife Act limits that relate only to hunting. I can carry a pump shotgun in the bush for wildlife protection with a 7 round mag, but can only have a 3 round capacity if I am hunting with it (for both upland and waterfowl here in Alberta, some provinces don't limit mags for upland birds). There is no double standard, the provinces are only allowed to regulate mag limits in relation to hunting and they cannot be greater than the federal limits.

haahaa I have one of them in 7.62x39 from wolverine it is to bad about the ak47 mag so my 5/10 pin mag
I still haven had the time to shoot it but hope to get out soon
There was a new/unfired 7.62x39 version of the AIA at the Chilliwack show. It lasted about 25 minutes on Saturday morning.
The fellow had $1100 on it and I heard he dropped $50 off his asking price because the buyer was buying it for his wife. That's the rumor anyway. I didn't talk to the seller at all, everything on his table was nice but of course, sporters.
The rifles that Marstar and Wolverine have left are all that will ever come into Canada again.
If you can scrape up the money, do it, you won't be disappointed.

I use mine. Heavy chromed barrel.
Provinces can set magazine limits for hunting but those limits cannot allow a magazine to exceed the limits for that magazine set by federal firearms regulations. E.g. firearms regulations do not limit capacity of a bolt action gun but a province can limit the capacity for hunting. Firearms regulations prohibit capacity over five if a detachable magazine is made for a centrefire semi-auto long gun. A provincial hunting regulation cannot allow that magazine to have a larger capacity.
Of the minigun barreled B3's I believe there was 150 total production with 10-15 ending up in Canada.
The 7.62x39 only had about 50 make it into Canada. There was some talk of one last small shipment coming in at some point.
I was lucky enough to add both to my collection and am seriously considering getting the full wood military model.
