Mag Capacity/Extension-legal?

[Floyd4prez]

I have been searching these forums and the Canadian firearms laws...can someone give me the right answer...

I just bought a benelli supernova, took out the shell limiter, added a 2-extension tube.

7+1.

Is this legal for target shooting/playtime...
I know for hunting its capped at 3...but since its a pump I thought I could have endless amounts of mag capacity...a lot of my friends told me I was wrong...

Thanks!

A7. As set out in Criminal Code Regulations, some large-capacity magazines are prohibited regardless of the class of firearm to which the magazines are attached. As a general rule, the maximum magazine capacity is:
• 5 cartridges for most magazines designed for a semi-automatic centre-fire long gun; or
• 10 cartridges for most handgun magazines

A large-capacity magazine is not prohibited if it has been permanently altered so that it cannot hold more than the number of cartridges allowed by law. Acceptable ways to alter a magazine are set out in the regulations.

There is no limit to the magazine capacity for semi-automatic rim-fire long guns, or for other long guns that are not semi-automatics.
