Thread: AICS 223 magazine alternative?

Talk to your arms officer in advance, and ask for a permit. According to police policy you don’t need a permit but if your Ao is generous it could save time stuffing around once it arrives in the country.

Ive going to meet the arms officer tomorrow as customs have caught a few of my packages containing a few 30rd Ar mags, 10rd AR mags and Bx25 mags along with some chokes and cleaning supplies.
I don’t own any semi-autos that the mags will work in, they will be used in a Mossberg MVP (bolt action) and ruger American rim fire (bolt action) both intended for recriational shooting.

Not only does the AO seem interested in confirming that I own those bolt action rifles but also that I “need” the quantity that I have ordered, as he wont let them in if he suspects I intend to on sell them.

Of course if your only importing one 10rd magazine you are a lot less likely to have any issues, and it might even sneak past customs unnoticed.
I will update with my experience tomorrow.
