Tango Down mags legal in Canada?

[Antoine22]

Are the Tango Down ARC legal in Canada? Because a retailer near my place sell them pinned to 10 rounds. I bought a couple of these anyways and I asked the manager if these were legal. His answer was something like :

If we sell them, they are legal...

Not quite conviced, I thought the LAR 10 shots magasine were the only 10 shots magasine legal in Canada. The clerk asked my PAL and driver's licence. He told me that the store poitic. Here's a link of the Tango Down ARC

The one I bought are exactly the same but pinned to 10 rounds.

You have purchased, and are in possession of, a prohibited device. Only PISTOL MAGAZINES have a 10 round limit. These are RIFLE mags, and as such, must be pinned to 5 rounds.

You might want to return them, and tell the store gently that they are selling prohib devices. The RCMP monitor these forums closely. Make it happen NOW.

Where can I get a couple of these?

If the mag is pinned to 5 rounds it is legal. Just pin it to 5 rounds.

If the mag is pinned to 5 rounds it is legal. Just pin it to 5 rounds.

You're right - you don't need to 'return it', as I stated in the previous post - just re-pin it! I was being overly fatalistic.

Either way - if you care at all about that store, you might want to convince them of the error of their ways.

The rcmp is going door to door in quebec looking for a Antoine22.

I wonder why the store thinks this. Maybe they don't like you.
