Yeah things are just extra screwed up here in Canada. We can use 10 round pistol mags but you would be hard pressed to follow the storage laws and use a pistol effectively for home defense. All our STANAGs are pinned to 5 besides a few which are intended for pistol type ARs. Of course they are in STANAG pattern and function in a standard AR amongst other rifles like the Benelli MR-1 but shhhh don't tell the anti's that.

In most cases any semi auto with a detachable magazine will be pinned to 5 rounds up here.

You probably won't read this but I will clarify for you just in case. The point of this thread is to demonstrate the purpose of standard/normal capacity magazines and that 30 rounds is not logically a "high capacity" for a magazine. 30 rounds are standard because when it's time to use the firearm for self defense you can't count on a fair fight, as clearly demonstrated in this video. Lucky for them the handgun was enough, and sure maybe he even only pulled the trigger 5 times, but if it were you in that situation, would you want 5 or 30 rounds between you and a dozen plus armed men with obvious intention to do you serious harm?

Okay so back to reality here in Canada, like I said before I'm glad that I live in a safe place and I recognize that in all likelyhood the only home defense I will be doing with my firearms is against nuisance varmints and wild critters (god willing).

I don't live in Toronto so I don't have to worry about black gangsters shooting up shopping mall I'm in while I'm just trying to find the Orange Julius....

gun love is just fear. why stop at 30 rounds? why not a bazooka, some grenades.. why not walk around all day everyday in full body armour, you know, just in case. i did live in Toronto, in the most dangerous part of the city, and took public transportation and walked around by myself at night. only got killed twice.

Well I think you might be lying about the last part so that sort of throws your whole statement into suspect, but you must have left for a reason. Maybe because it isn't safe anymore. Whenever I talk to girls who come from Toronto they always mention how they never felt safe on the street at night.

A carbine rifle with a 30 round mag is the right tool for the job, and less so a handgun with at least 10 rounds but preferably 15. Bazooka, grenades, not so much.

I could probably sell a lot of body armour in Toronto with the almost daily gangster shootings going on there lately. Better to just shoot first though.
