RCMP declares 10+ round 10/22 mags prohibited

This will probably boost sales of other 22lr rifles. Me and my brother are in the market for a 22lr chambered rifle and now knowing this we will probably take a closer look at Savage MK II with scope at Cabelas.

Bought a Chiappa's little badger too. For 170$ cant go wrong with that lol

Everybody seems to be really going over board with the self-defeating rhetoric. The Ruger 10/22 rifle is not what's being reclassified. It's one of three different magazines that may be used in the rifle which has been reclassified as "high capacity". It's a stupid regulation change and silly on every level,typical Liberal inspired nonsense,but, it doesn't mean we still can't use the 10/22 rifles. The Ruger 10 shot mags that come standard with the rifle are still allowed to be used.

Saw a copy of an RCMP directive posted online today ... clarifies *all* 10/22 mags now prohibited.

did it say "all" or all high capacity?

Would be a quick and dirty way around to remove all firearms......Yup you can own any gun you want, just outlaw any mag that fits any rifle, pistol, or shotgun.

All that exceed 10

All HIGH CAPACITY mags that can be used in both pistols AND rifles are now prohibited devices. Ruger 10/22 rifles come with a rotary 10 shot mag as standard equipment. Good to go. If that's changed since yesterday,please post the link.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. All 10/22 mags with a capacity over 10 rounds are now prohibited. This is regardless of whether they were made for the rifle, etc., etc. A capacity of over 10 rounds now makes the mag a prohibited device.

Actually that's not quite correct either. The GSG 110rnd mag states directly that it is for the 10/22 rifle and as such is not included in this prohibition. That's really all Butler Creek needs to do now, mark "for Ruger 10/22 rifle" on the mag and they will be good to go. If this passes older ones will need to be pinned. TC

That's not what the RCMP letter says....

So if I etch my old 30 round mag as 10/22 rifle, I should be ok?
