gun law
The Firearms Act, through the Criminal Code, has made 'replica' firearms to be prohibited devices. A replica is a non-firearm (which is why dewats are still legal as they were once 'firearms') which, even if it can discharge a projectile, does so at a velocity which is not capable of causing grievous bodily injury.
A 'reproduction' is a firearm which is a copy of an actual firearm - iusually an antique - but of modern construction. Reproduction firearms are registerable as either restricted, non-restricted or prohibited, depending on their characteristics. The Enfield revolvers mentioned in this thread would be replicas and would be prohibited.
