Buy recommendations Henry supreme mag?

Post image

I just put a down payment on a Henry supreme 5.56 at my local gun store. I was under the impression that these magazines have to be pinned to 5 but my gun store employee said it's a 10 round limit which makes no sense to me. Is there some sort of loophole that he knows about and I don't? Or was he bullshitting / mistaken? Pic for attention.

​

Regardless, what is the best magazine option for these things in Canada? All I'm going to be using it for is target shooting for now.

​

Thanks In advance!

Magazine capacity is based on the firearm it was designed for, and it is illegal to modify magazines in this particular context. So if you get a STANAG 4179 rifle magazine, it's max five rounds. If you get a STANAG 4179 compatible pistol magazine such as an MFT LAR-15 magazine, capacity is 10. If you get an almost compatible magazine like a BCL MRX bolt action magazine and modify your rifle to fit the magazine, then you can use the 20 round magazine
