The Criminal Code states that a; "firearm" means a barrelled weapon from which any shot, bullet or other projectile can be discharged and that is capable of causing serious bodily injury or death to a person, and includes any frame or receiver of such a barrelled weapon and anything that can be adapted for use as a firearm.
So a spigot mortar would not be considered a barrelled weapon in its strictest sense. A court could change this however.
