Awright. Most of the time eh? Bull!
I've spent some time, many times, trying to find my own f**king posts, ferchrist sake, when I knew what there was in them, and what keywords I should have been able to use to find them, and had to resort to page by page scanning through the listings to find them. I have played with about every available option that I thought would work, and a bunch that I tried changing just to see if they would make any differences.
I have tried it with Firefox (two versions, on two different computers) Chrome, and IE (not sure the version, work computer).
I'll stand by my opinion that the search function is pretty much just pooched from the get-go.
Add to that the horrendous default settings to start with, and that makes a bad thing worse.
Truth is, it is one of the few things I would like to see changed about the site. I can understand the logic behind trying to keep the server horsepower from being tied up by searches that encompass too broad a swath of data, but I'm pretty sure it was supposed to work better than it does.
Oh, and to add insult to injury, I have to wait 20 seconds between attempts that come up frikken empty! FarrrKKKKK!!!!!!!!
There. That feels better!
Cheers

Couldn't have ranted it better myself.
I'm going to keep checking to see if they get anymore in:

These are the mags: ....a bit pricey....but...
http://www.tacticalinc.com/ti25-mach...022-p-212.html
Just a thought.... they will probably encounter this same problem in some US states where 10 is the magic number. Hopefully they repackage/renumber and make it available. Or worst case scenario pin to 10.

I think ruger does care about the Canadian market, they altered the SR-22 with a fixed stock (for a while) and took off the deadly flash hider in order to pass their export laws. Hopefully Ruger can re-market these mags with another name or part # for canada. Thats just how sad things are here, the legality of a magazine is based purely on the name.
How do those Mounties who are responsible for these bans feel, I wonder, at the foolishness they perpetrate? Do they not feel the heat of embarrassment in their faces when they make the decisions they do? Our illogical laws are a national humiliation. It is as if a monkey wrote them.
I think it is just sad that the rcmp are classifying this item as a prohib. after all we have access to other magazines available that are the same size and configuration.
I cannot have a 25 round mp15-22 magazine, but it is fine to have a blackdog 50 round drum.
they just like to flaunt their power.

I wonder what the legal difference between "made for" and "will work in" is...?
That's a good question.
As far as I can tell, they seem to apply the "designed or manufactured for" wording primarily to original equipment manufacturers. Thus, the Chiappa .22 upper magazine made by Chiappa is evil, but other identical magazines made by third parties are OK (at least so far.)
Since the RCMP does not claim to possess mind reading ability, they seem to rely on manufacturer's advertising, parts labeling or inadvertent slips of the tongue to determine what something was "designed for." Absent these clues, I suppose they resort to tea leaves or chicken entrails to discern the original design purpose.
The worrisome part is that there is no legal or statutory definition (ditto for "variant", "commonly available", etc.) Therefore we are always at the mercy of the tortured logic of the classification department.
Have you read this thread? Or any of the several others?
Placed order with Rimfire Customs for 4 Magazines. Box arrived at Post office covered in Canada Customs tape and a bill for $25 for duties. So the box was opened and inspected by Custom Agents. Someone screwed up.
I guess I'll just sit here and wait for that knock on the door.
