We are both right on this one. The Charlton which used a Lee Metford action had the Bren magazines. But there was also the Charlton based on the SMLE, which used the regular magazines.
There was also the Howell which was the conversion that used the standard Enfield mags.
Whoever wrote our gun laws knew just enough to realize that these examples existed, and rather than ignore them, they wrote in the exemption, which really did not have to be written since the mags were already exempt as having been designed for a bolt action rifle.
