Ya I def would not use it as a defensive load out, but I haven't had any issue so far ...works a treat in the right gun . Id only use for fun /plinking around !
They certainly are. The law is for all semi-auto centerfire firearms, not just rifles.
Depends for what. For 3 gun and other range games or fun plinking a long barrel and big mag are fine. For wilderness carry or self defense not so much.
It works fine in my experience, but it is fiddly and slow to load up. That's why I said was really only any use at the range or in competition. For self defense or wilderness carry I wouldn't go there.

I ghost load every single competition shotgun that it is possible to ghost load, they are absolutely reliable once loaded. Real world self defence type shotgun I’m not worried about ghost loading at all, mainly because I’m running a pump if my life depends on it and I’m not racing a timer
PS- before anyone says semis are just as reliable these days you are probably absolutely correct, just a personal preference if it ever gets to that point

What shotgun officer?
Under 25 yards there's nothing better than the roar of 6+1 of 2 3/4" 000 Buck out of an auto loader 12ga when you absolutely, positively need something deleted, be that paper or predator. And with the increasing use of drones, nothing beats it.

we know a few things about shotguns and magtubes , we make and sell about 50,000 shotgun mag tubes a year.
The canadian laws are stupid, but as others have posted the law states 5 but not 6 rounds of the largest capasity the gun was designed for .
so as all new shgun are 3 inch or 3.5 inch that does give a few more rounds.

it is fun. my A300 UP can hold 6+1 2.75" shell with S&J extension tube. Get cheap shell caddies on Etsy and practice your duo/ quad loading, you will have a lot of fun.
I have more fun on shotgun than any other centerfire. I started with a supernova then buying an A300 UP, since then, my supernova is screaming for more love.
