Magazine Capacity Bolt Action

[ElmerFudd]

The bolt action rifle I want to take deer hunting in CO has detachable mags. I have a five round one and a few 10 round ones. I see the CO regulations have essentially a five round magazine limit (six counting the one in the pipe) for semi-autos but can't find anything about non semi-autos. I assume a spare 10 round magazine is ok for a bolt action. Correct?

 

[BeanMan]

Nope, five rounds max.

Looney Tunes remake will see Elmer Fudd without his rifle as creators declare 'we're not doing guns'

Warner Bros has commissioned a new animation series but will not show firearms in response to US gun violence

Sorry Elmer, you can't even have a gun.

Bolt gun with 10 round mag be like.....

My district Game Warden said having the magazine with a greater than five round capacity would get you a ticket....even if there were 5 rounds or less in the magazine.

 

[Gjkimber45]

The way I read it in their regs. You are correct. Only semi auto has a mag capacity restriction. But I would call and get a definite answer. Might even make a couple of calls to see if everyone is one the same page.

It won’t be long and we won’t be able to have any rounds in our possession while in Colorado.

How many tags you got?

Actually, even the libs here have guns. At least on the west slope. Not talking about the new arrivals who bring their bad manners with them.

It's in a chassis set up for AI magazines. That's getting more common. I think with any gun with a detachable magazine, it's good to have a backup magazine in case you accidentally push the release in your activities, especially if packed in a long way. I just have one 5 round one and would prefer not to buy a other if the 10 rounder is legal to carry while hunting. Not that I'm that bad of a shot.....

 

[Bluehair]

I don't think you should bring your big mag, but I think you should show a picture of your rifle. I've been pondering a chassis setup.

 

[ElmerFudd]

Picture as requested.

 

[swampokie]

Like the rifle but love the scope

Is that a savage stealth. If so what rear stock did you go with

thanks

Is a 100 round drum out of the question

 

[swampokie]

Not much different than a dozen arrows in a quiver that I see on every 2000$ bow in the woods.

 

[Bluehair]

Am I the only one who will admit to never emptying a mag or quiver before?

 

[hawkbill]

Why hasn’t someone made a magazine for arrows

Oh but they have hawkbill!?

How many rounds do you need to hunt?

I have only one shot and never considered it a handicap.

drill a hole in the back of the ten rounder and put a pop rivet in it to limit the follower to travel down past the 5 round limit......easily removed after the hunt.

They've been selling 30 round magpul mags here in california with the pop rivet at the 10 round level for years.....

As long as it's pinned. That's what the game warden told me.
