Collectors license hypothetical around magazines

[wolfthomas]

So I understand the clearest answer might be asking licensing but I thought I'd ask my peers first.

I have had a General Handgun license for sporting shooting in Victoria for a while but recently I have got my category 1 collectors license.

If I shoot a new-ish Browning HiPower with 10 rds magazines for sporting and I'm looking to obtain an older pre-1947 Browning HiPower on my collectors license because I think they're neat.

Then if I come across a 13rd original browning magazine before I find an antique Browning HiPower, am I allowed to own it?

Or will I get into trouble as technically it could go into my newer HiPower which I use for sporting?

Just trying to stay out of trouble with all the byzantine rules.

You would be able to own an 13 rounder but you'll be in the stink if you are caught using at the range

G'day wolfthomas,
yoshie has hit the nail on the head, you can own any magazine just don't use it. The mags aren't that hard to come by either, I have a couple on my Collectors for the Vietnam era holster I found which also are not hard to find. WW2 Canadian holsters pop up now and then but of course Nazi marked ones are expensive, Cheers.
