ive driven down to matches in the US and flown. sometimes its more convenient to have fun at a match 35 min away then driving down for 4 hrs then add border wait times and fuel and its too much hassle for a level 1. i just find that ruling politically correct as the rcmp clearly stated and documented that it is legal to put more then 10 rds of a different caliber in a magazine if it can fit.

5. Magazines for semiautomatic handguns which contain more than ten (10) rounds of a different calibre

Magazines designed to contain centrefire cartridges and designed or manufactured for use in a semiautomatic handgun, are limited to 10 cartridges. The capacity is measured by the kind of cartridge the magazine was designed to contain. In some cases the magazine will be capable of containing more than 10 rounds of a different caliber; however that is not relevant in the determination of the maximum permitted capacity.

Example:
Heckler and Koch P7 pistol chambered for 9mm Luger caliber:
The magazine designed for the 40 S&W calibre variant of the pistol will hold 13 cartridges of 9mm Luger calibre and function in the 9mm Luger calibre P7 pistol. This is permissible as the maximum permitted capacity of the 40 S&W calibre magazine must be measured by the number of 40 S&W calibre cartridges it is capable of holding, which is 10 such cartridges in the case of the HK P7 pistol magazine.

if its legal and PCC is a completely separate division then the 10rd limit shouldn't be enforced for PCC

Why don't you run for the IPSC Canada regional director?
Then you'll be able to set the rules you like and will deal with NROI, RCMP and the rest of Canadian laws yourself.

Why don’t you just run outlaw matches and you could use your glock 40 mags then you can have all the level 1 matches you want to have.
 
" As an RO, I appreciate no need to deal with legality of magazines used by all match competitors.
It removes the need to have a lawyer at hand at every match, as well as level up all competitor's equipment. "

Yes indeed.

It also removes the ridiculous scenario that everyone would now have to go out and get .40 cal mags for their PCC, just because one guy does it.
