BTW, even the RCMP is limited to 10 round mags. Several years ago I offered to bring him a few "Pre Ban" 15 round mags, he declined the offer as he had never been issued 15 round mags and would have a hell of a hard time explaining how and where he acquired the mags if he ever had to use them.

I find that "10 round mags" very hard to believe. I retired 3 years ago from Canada's largest Municipal (City) Police Service and we carrried City issued Glock 22's with (3) 15 round magazines. There is a magazine capacity exemption for law enforcement up here.
