Doesn't matter what it does. Its a listed prohibited device.
In reality you could easily load ball ammunition and fire it PLUS the barrel is under 4" However Mr. Loy you are sly. The Enfield type is NOT a listed device so carry on.
The CPFO's stand on deactivations is that none are legal unless the weapon was legally registered and professionally deactivated and recorded as such.
You may ask what about all those cut Brens and stens and BAR's sold for years with torch cuts. There were saw cut Brens you could buy that if you put in a new barrel and breechblock parts they would fire. My deep feeling is that one day all these "dewats" will have to be registered as such. If not professionally done ie barrel drilled and pinned to frame, trigger
group complete and welded in place and top cover welded on
this will have to be done or they will be seized. Although it is not common information the War Museum is deactivating their display weapons.
