WHy do the sell guns that only hold 4 in mag? Sure, you get get after market mags but doesn't make them legal. If I'm wrong it changed at some point.

I was always under the impression that you were allowed a 5 round capacity, 4 in the magazine plus 1 in the chamber. However the regulations states a 5 round magazine. It's a little more clear when hunting migratory birds, the regs states a capacity of 3, 1 in the chamber and 2 in the magazine.

I do believe it used to be 5 total. A few years back not sure exactly when (as I started bowling ing exclusively) it changed to 5 magazine capacity which actually cleared it up a bit. 1 in chamber 5 in mag total of 6. But then again FWC has a habit of making things clear as mud. Don't take anyone's word read it for yourself. It is in print in black and white. Exercise your mastery of the English language. It is clear. And whether you are referring to a clip (M1 Garand) or the rest magazines they as ( far as capacity are the same).

4 or 5 rounds is a lot to put in a deer, and still a lot to use on two deer. It’s funny that the mag limit doesn’t apply to all rifles for deer.
As for the OP, I hope you go ahead and use the product that was suggested to limit the rifle capacity and enjoy yourself. I would do the same.

If you feel you could be compromised if stopped by a LEO, you could simply carry a couple of extra rifles or enlist a gun porter to help you with greater ammo capacity😉

Thought M1's were bolt...looks like regs y'all post are for semi-auto?

M1 Garand is a semi-auto, the Springfield '03A3 was a bolt action.
