Smith & Wesson at some point decided to manufacture a pistol version of the M&P 15-22, a smaller firearm which shares the magazine of the rifle version. RCMP notices this and decides that all M&P 15-22 magazines are now handgun magazines, which have a capacity limit of 10 rounds. All existing M&P 15-22 rifle owners are now in possession of illegal 25-round M&P 15-22 magazines, which either need to be permanently modified to 10 round capacity (at the owner's cost) and verified, or turned in to the government for destruction (with no compensation).
